Overview
Pumice is a type of stone originating from volcanic activity, porous, with many tiny holes. It is an ideal place for beneficial microorganisms to reside, breaking down toxins in the water. Reusable (does not deteriorate during use, can be cleaned and reused). Small grains, easy to arrange and design. In addition to serving as a water filtration material, pumice can also be used as substrate material for dragon fish tanks and aquascaping tanks.
Lava gear is commonly used for freshwater planted tanks, nano aquascapes, and routine maintenance — always match capacity to your tank volume and livestock.
