ADA La Plata Sand (Box of 3)

ADA La Plata Sand – Premium Light-Coloured Sand for Professional Aquascaping

ADA Laplata Sand is a high-quality natural aquarium sand designed to create bright, open, and refined aquascapes. Its soft, pale coloration reflects light beautifully, making aquariums appear more spacious while drawing attention to plant structures and hardscape compositions.

The sand features carefully graded fine grains that provide a smooth and comfortable surface for shrimp, catfish, and other bottom-dwelling species. Being chemically inert, it does not affect pH or hardness, allowing aquarists full control over water parameters and fertilisation strategies.
