Red Clay(Iron for your Roots!!)
We sell Red Clay by the pound. You can add one pound of red clay to any planted tank substrate. One pound is enough for a 20 gallon aquarium. Ever tank is different, but if you want a general rule of green thumb, one pound per 20 gallons of water is a good amount. The clay is red and contains high amounts of Iron which is what your plants love. Plants absorb 40 to 400 times more iron through their roots. Pair this with our Alternathera Reineckii "Variegated" to see the full effect of this Clay!
By adding clay to your planted tank. You are feeding your plants where they are eating. You can see in my many videos how the roots grow toward the clay. Get your plants some clay, even if you aren't ready to convert to dirt, this way you can start to see the power that feeding your plants at their roots provides. Don't believe yet that plants LOVE CLAY? Check out how the roots of my plants grow into it in this video...

Let me first start by saying I may not have used the clay as intended. I used it to attach the plants to some rocks in the tank, then quickly found it dissipating into the water and made the water super cloudy. I ended up having to remove it and syphon out as much as i could. So just know it's possible this can happen.
Perfect super clean red clay!
Just got it today have no idea yet try me again in a month I'll gladly give a review
This Clay is just perfect for making a little ball and sticking some Osmocote or root tabs to it and slipping it under the substrate, especially at the base of swords, but really any of the plants. Reasonably priced, last a long time, and works great!
I added some to my tank about a week ago, so it’s a little too soon to notice any great changes. I will say it was easy to add to the tank and did not cloud the water like root tabs. I’ve got high hopes for happy plants.
