TORBA 320g – Pure Sphagnum Peat Granules for Freshwater Aquariums
The Torba 320g is a 100% natural pure Sphagnum peat product processed into granules to ensure a gradual release of humic acids. These organic compounds play a key role in modifying and stabilizing the chemical-physical characteristics of aquarium water by reducing carbonate hardness and lowering the pH to slightly acidic levels typical of Amazonian biotope environments.
The peat imparts an amber coloration to the water, mimicking natural blackwater rivers, creating an ideal habitat for tropical species that prefer soft, acidic water. This product is especially suited for freshwater aquariums housing plants and fish that require stable, natural environmental conditions.
Usage instructions:
-
The 320-gram pack is suitable for aquariums up to 300 liters
-
Pour the desired amount of peat granules into the provided sock
-
Rinse the sock under running water for a few seconds
-
Place the sock in the biological filter of the aquarium
-
Remove any activated carbon from the filter, as it may neutralize the peat’s effects
-
Use with caution when CO2 fertilization is applied and carbonate hardness (KH) is below 3°, as it may cause excessive pH drop
Why choose Torba 320g:
Torba 320g is an excellent choice for aquarists aiming to recreate natural and biologically balanced freshwater environments, especially Amazonian biotopes and other habitats with amber-colored, slightly acidic water. Its gradual humic acid release ensures a lasting and controlled effect, promoting the health and well-being of aquatic plants and animals.
