NEO Soil Shrimp Powder 3l - fine substrate for shrimp tanks

The Powder version is a substrate gradation of 1mm.

NEO Soil Shrimp substrate is designed to create ideal conditions for shrimp breeding. The substrate has many features that maintain appropriate pH, KH, and GH levels in the water. Additionally, it supports plant growth, shrimp vitality, and promotes the development of nitrifying bacteria.

These benefits are attributed to special two-component substrate granules that contain various types of soil inside.
The granules are coated with a special sintered clay that prevents the granules from breaking down and provides excellent protection for the soil contained within against disintegration and high pressure that occurs in large aquariums.


Excellent water quality improves the quality of life for adult shrimp and increases the survival rate of young shrimp just after hatching and during the introduction of new shrimp or fish populations into the tank. Furthermore, the soil components strengthen the formation and texture of the shrimp's shell.

The soil creates stable water quality just 7 days after flooding. Due to the special structure of the soil with various types inside the granules, this soil has a lower weight and an excellent filtering effect.

In addition to reducing pH and water hardness, this soil also has other positive properties.
For example, bacteria are already present in the soil and activate when the soil comes into contact with water. The bacteria convert harmful substances that could be detrimental to shrimp or fish.

The rapid growth of bacteria is possible due to the presence of a nutrient for aerobic and anaerobic nitrifying bacteria inside the substrate granules. The aquarium maturation process is significantly faster and more stable due to these features.
The microscopic pores in the coating of the granules increase their surface area, thus increasing the habitat for other important bacterial strains.

Unlike other substrates, NEO Soil Compact also has adsorptive properties, ensuring excellent water clarity.
