ATI FIJI WHITE SAND
Our Fiji White Sand is a natural product that is obtained from the mining of a highly pure natural deposit. This gives us a fine and white substrate for saltwater aquariums that is characterized by many positive properties:
1. Highest purity:
Our sand consists of 99.6% pure calcium and magnesium compounds, making it one of the cleanest materials currently available on the market.
2. Very white and high reflection properties:
Due to its high purity, the sand is also particularly white. This is very beneficial for the brightness in the aquarium as a whole. Corals receive a higher proportion of reflections from the bottom, similar to what happens in nature, which is very beneficial for corals. Fiji White Sand is therefore ideal for aquariums with light-hungry corals, as they then also receive a higher proportion of diffuse radiation from below.
3. no more extreme drifts:
Due to its significantly higher density than comparable aragonite sand, Fiji White Sand is much heavier and therefore stays in place better in currents.
APPLICATION:
We recommend a layer height of about 2cm. For DSB at least 8-10cm. Due to the small grain size of the sand, an accumulation of detritus in the substrate is largely avoided when the flow is good.
The sand should be rinsed well several times before use in the aquarium. The dust that is always present due to friction during transport etc. should be rinsed out as much as possible. To do this, rinse the sand until the water is no longer milky/white and is mostly clear.
