About this item

X2 BBS Soil (Ceramic Gravel) – Premium Caridina Shrimp & Plant Substrate

Experience the difference with BBS Crystal Shrimp and Plant Soil, a high-performance substrate made from the finest volcanic ash sourced in Japan. This premium substrate is specifically engineered to create an ideal environment for Caridina shrimp and aquarium plants, promoting both stable water quality and enhanced growth.

Key Benefits:

  • Stable Water Quality:

    • The volcanic ash-based material, combined with carefully selected additives, effectively controls and time-releases nitrate (NO₃) levels.

    • This controlled release prevents the toxic buildup of NO₃, protecting Caridina shrimp from long-term exposure and ensuring a healthy environment for both shrimp and plants.

    • It also acts as a natural buffer, maintaining the pH at levels ideal for breeding and keeping Caridina shrimp.

  • Enhanced Shrimp and Plant Growth:

    • BBS Soil promotes faster growth of Caridina shrimp and shrimplets, as well as vibrant, healthy aquarium plants.

    • Our research shows that aquariums using BBS Soil exhibit more robust growth compared to other substrates.

    • By creating the ideal breeding and growth environment, this substrate has become the top choice for many aquarists.

Why Choose BBS Soil?

Choosing the right substrate is critical for establishing a stable and thriving aquarium ecosystem. BBS Soil’s excellent stability, ease of use, and targeted benefits for Caridina shrimp and plants make it the preferred substrate for aquarium enthusiasts. With proper water management and regular maintenance, you can achieve rapid growth and successful breeding, allowing you to fully enjoy the wonderful world of shrimp keeping.

Elevate your aquarium’s performance with X2 BBS Soil and experience the best in natural, high-quality substrate technology.

Beautiful addition to my reef!

The fish arrived in perfect condition. Packaging was triple insulated with heat packs. Acclimation was smooth and it was eating frozen mysis within 2 hours of introduction. AquaEditorial never disappoints.

Good but picky eater

Beautiful specimen, arrived healthy. Takes a while to adjust to new food but eventually started eating pellets. Great addition to my South American cichlid tank.

FAQs

Emily R.·2 days ago

What temperature should I keep the tank at for this fish?

Betta USASeller·replied

Great question! We recommend maintaining a water temperature of 82–86°F (28–30°C). Discus are tropical fish and thrive in warm, stable water conditions. A reliable heater with a thermostat is essential.

Michael T.·5 days ago

Can I keep this with other fish in a community tank?

Betta USASeller·replied

Yes! Discus are peaceful and social. They do best with calm tank mates like Cardinal Tetras, Rummy Nose Tetras, and Corydoras Catfish. Avoid aggressive or fast-moving fish that may stress them.

Sarah L.·1 week ago

What size tank do I need for a small group?

Betta USASeller·replied

We recommend a minimum of 55 gallons for a small group of discus. They need spacious aquariums with open swimming areas, live plants, driftwood, and gentle filtration.

David K.·1 week ago

What should I feed them?

Betta USASeller·replied

Discus are omnivores and benefit from a varied diet. We recommend high-quality discus pellets, frozen bloodworms, brine shrimp, and beef heart mixes. A varied diet helps maintain vibrant coloration.
