Aqua One Gravel is designed for aquarium hobbyists looking to personalize their fish tanks with vibrant, natural-looking substrate. Its key benefit is providing a safe, colorfast, and versatile decorative medium for coldwater, tropical, and marine setups, as well as various craft projects. A minor consideration is the availability of specific colors, which may vary.

Yes, Aqua One Gravel is safe for coldwater, tropical, and marine fish. It is coated in a non-toxic, colorfast epoxy resin.
A general guideline is to use approximately 1kg of gravel for every 10 liters of aquarium volume. This provides a sufficient depth for most setups. For a 50-liter tank, you would need about 5kg.
Yes, it is essential to rinse the gravel thoroughly under cold running water before adding it to your aquarium or project to remove any manufacturing dust.
No, the gravel is coated with a colorfast epoxy resin, which prevents the color from leaching into the water and ensures the color remains vibrant.
Yes, it can be used in aquariums with live plants or as a decorative top layer for potted plants. Ensure proper drainage for potted plants.
The gravel has a grain size of approximately 7mm.
Yes, you can mix different colors to create unique patterns and designs in your aquarium or craft projects.
Rinse the gravel more thoroughly under running water until the water runs clear. Ensure you rinse until all visible dust is removed.
This is often fine dust that was not completely rinsed. Allow your filter to run continuously; the cloudiness should clear within 24-48 hours. Avoid vacuuming immediately after setup.
While safe, the 7mm grain size might not be ideal for all species. Ensure fish have adequate swimming space and consider if the gravel size is appropriate for their burrowing or foraging habits. If possible, introduce substrate gradually or offer alternative substrate areas.
