  • Key Points

  • Characteristics

  • Usage

    • No need to rinse the substrate before use, it's ready to use.
    • Spread the PowerVol base substrate with a depth of 2-4 cm of PowerVol evenly in the tank.
    • Create slopes or volumes at will by adding extra PowerVol on top.
    • Now, you can arrange safely and securely the hardscape on top of the PowerVol that provides a stable foundation.
    • Once satisfied with the hardscape layout, cover with your chosen substrate, such as Eonian Series or Artist Series.
    • Pour water gently on top of a hard surface to avoid upsetting the planted soil.
    • During the initial setup period, the aquarium water may turn cloudy, but it should disappear in a few hours after turning on the filter.
