NATURAL GRAVEL MEKONG 0.1–0.6 mm – Fine Natural Light Sand for Elegant and Natural Aquascapes
Natural Gravel Mekong 0.1–0.6 mm is a fine, light-colored natural sand designed to replicate the tranquil riverbeds of the Mekong River, one of the world's most biodiverse aquatic regions. Its pale sandy hue and ultra-fine grain size make it perfect for creating clean, natural-looking paths, accent zones, or full sandscapes in aquariums of any size or style.
This sand offers exceptional contrast when paired with darker rocks such as Black Lava, Mini Landscape, Grey Slate, or Lake Mountains, enhancing the visual depth and clarity of your aquascape. The soft texture makes it completely safe for bottom-dwellers, shrimp, snails, and delicate fish, minimizing the risk of injury or irritation.
Mekong Gravel is 100% natural, CO₂- and light-resistant, and chemically inert. It will not alter your tank’s water parameters, and it supports beneficial bacterial colonization. The fine grains are also ideal for rooted aquatic plants, allowing easy anchoring and growth.
