Description

Experience the Versatility of Japanese Lava Stone!

Introducing our premium Japanese Lava Stone, available in a compact 0-5mm particle size, perfect for a variety of uses in both aquaculture and horticulture.

Key Features:

Natural Volcanic Product: Sourced from volcanic regions, this crushed lava stone, known as Fujizuna, is an attractive and sustainable addition to your gardening and aquarium needs.
Optimal for Bonsai and Succulents: When combined with akadama and pumice, it forms an ideal medium that promotes aeration and prevents soil compaction.
Enhanced Water Retention: Its high porosity allows for effective water and fertilizer penetration, making it a staple for those looking to optimize their plant growth.
Longevity: This durable stone does not break down over time, ensuring that your growing medium remains effective for an extended period.

Perfect for Aquariums:

Beneficial Environment: The porous structure promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria, essential for maintaining water quality by removing nitrates.
Natural Foraging: Small cavities in the stones provide a habitat for shrimp and other aquatic life, allowing them to forage for food.
Ideal for Cichlid Enthusiasts: Its heavy nature ensures it won’t float, making it an excellent choice for various tank setups.

Usage Tips:

For an effective growing mix, consider the ‘Boon mix’ (1 part small lava stone, 1 part small akadama, 1 part small pumice) – a renowned formula among bonsai enthusiasts. For increased water retention, especially with deciduous trees, simply adjust the ratios to include more akadama.

Particle Distribution:

Our Japanese Lava Stone comes with a particle distribution of approximately:

+-50% smaller than 2.4mm
+-50% larger than 2.4mm, smaller than 5mm

Transform your aquarium, bonsai, or succulent setups with the unparalleled benefits of Japanese Lava Stone today!
