WIO Florabed – Artist Terra

Create a natural and grounded atmosphere in your aquarium with WIO Florabed Artist Terra. This clay-based florabed is designed to mimic the earthy tones found in natural habitats, providing a stable base for your aquatic plants to grow and thrive.

Florabed Artist Terra brings the natural beauty of the earth to your aquarium — inspired by the earthy tones found in natural habitats and perfect for simulating the banks of rivers and streams. It provides a sense of stability and groundedness in your aquatic biotope, while enhancing the natural colors of your aquatic plants and animals. Available in both Thick and Fine grain sizes, it is suitable for all aquarium depths including deep public aquariums.

The porous clay substrate provides a stable base for aquatic plants to grow and thrive, while also supplying all the necessary macro and microelements for long-term growth and beauty. Its bio-filtering function enhances microbial colonization, reducing the buildup of harmful substances and promoting a healthy ecosystem.
