The best substrates for a planted aquarium are ones with nutrients for plants to feed on. A lot of the normal substrates that people keep in aquariums like sand or gravel don’t have any nutrients for plants. It’s important to be aware of which substrates have nutrients for plants.
One of the best substrates for planted aquariums is Fluval stratum. It consists of small encapsulated balls of soil. The roots of the plants can feed on the nutrients through the gel capsule. This substrate for plants had been a staple to the aquarium hobby for quite some time. It is a solid choice when setting up a planted aquarium.
