Safe substrates from the ECO PLANT brand or gravel from construction supplies?:
Usually, gravels and sands available on auctions come from construction supplies. This is the main reason for the formation of algae, the death of plants and fish. The reason is unstable pH, unknown chemical compounds contained in the gravel, and inhabited viruses, fungi, and pathogens, present despite washing and boiling by the unfortunate user. It's enough to buy a ton of gravel for two hundred and push it on aquarists as aquarium gravel. No more hypocrisy!

Eco Plant offers natural gravels sourced from aquatic environments for your aquarium. This gravel has much better properties than construction gravel used for making concrete. It does not cause pH spikes, does not contain harmful substances, and the only bacteria present are nitrifying bacteria. Due to its neutrality to water, structure, porosity, and color, the gravel has "anti-algae" properties and does not promote algae growth.

Decoration or main substrate?
That depends on you. The gravel works great as a so-called "island" or river in the aquarium. You can also use it as the main substrate.

Is it suitable for planting plants?
Absolutely. You can easily plant aquatic plants in this substrate.

Should I rinse it or not?
The gravel is rinsed and inhabited by bacteria. Unfortunately, during transport, there is slight abrasion of the gravel (stone rubbing against stone), causing a film that needs to be rinsed off.
Rinsing takes little time and is safe. Remember to rinse under running water at a slightly warm temperature (lukewarm water). This will prevent excessive rinsing of the bacteria.

Why is the gravel wet when the package is opened?
For two reasons:
1: it is taken straight from the water and packed in a double bag.
2: this allows bacteria to live and reproduce.
