• Aragonit - A unique sand from nature

Aragonit occurs as a purely natural product on the Bahama Banks, where it is created as a result of algae metabolism and bacteria. It precipitates as a result of the biochemical process and floats over Bahama Banks, where it falls on the seabed. In this way, almost 2 billion kilograms of new Aragonite arises each year. In the natural form of ARAGONIT we offered, it is a fully balanced product.

• Why oolytic sand is ideal for an ecosystem in your aquarium

Thanks to the Aragonite Sand, you create the best conditions in your marine aquarium, thanks to which its residents feel good, they develop and remain healthy. Because he has something decisive what they do not have calcite or dolomite: his natural oolitic (ovate) grain makes this sand pleasantly soft. This makes Aragonian sand suitable for kicking animals, such as grandmothers, crabs and sea cucumbers. Tough and "difficult" plants, such as high seaweed, also grow very well. Natural, round polished sand reef is ideal for the "Deep Sand Bed" method (DSB).

Highly porous aragonite is available in various sizes of grains, with the smallest grains of less than one millimeter. These small sand grains offer a huge advantage of a larger surface for bacterial colonization than other sands. Aragonit in ankle with a volume of one cubic centimeter has an amazing 8,000 square meter! As many biomass means that Aragonit is unbeatable in the reduction of nitrates, nitrites and ammonia.

• Recommended by Triton and other institutes of marine biology

Experts repeatedly emphasize the importance of aragonite as a substrate. Like in your marine home, Aragonit also works in your tank when only the pH falls below 8.2, i.e. natural sea water. This happens because when the water becomes acid, the substrate is dissolved, releasing minerals and microelements, such as calcium, strontium, magnesium and iodine. The corals absolutely need these substances to build their skeleton. The pH value then returns to normal and your aquarium remains stable. Everything naturally and without chemical additives. This is one of the many advantages of Aragonite compared to calcite or dolomite.

Only Aragonit can also do it: "A wonderful mineral" has 30 times a larger filter capacity than a purely decorative sand, such as calcite or dolomite. Anyone who decides to sustainable aquarium, chooses Aragonit from the very beginning. In contrast to other substrates, rarely need to exchange real reef sand and save lime water and calcium reactors. Just add some sand if necessary and enjoy a unique stable ecosystem in the aquarium.

• Natural from scratch - environmentally friendly and obtained in a sustainable way

On shells on a coral reef, you can see a fascinating nature cycle: new ones are constantly formed. Aragonit from Caribsea comes only from self-tune sources (Bahama Banks). Here, the sand is extracted in an environmentally friendly way and goes to your home free from heavy metals, pesticides or other harmful substances, but full of good and natural materials. Use a balanced sand mined from intact reef ecosystems and start with the most natural substrate in the aquarium. For love for nature. For love for your hobby, marine aquaristics.
