The purpose of a sand cap, or any cap for that matter, can be a complex issue. In this video I hope to explain what the purpose or a cap is, for a Planted Tank aquarium, and whether or not you would benefit from adding one, or not.
From aquasoil, ada Amazonia, fluval stratum, ecocomplete, contrasoil, dirt, brightwell, coarse gravel, Pea gravel, fluorite, sand, silt or Mulm- we go over the thickness needed for proper capping and separation of ammonia, nutrites and organics so your plants are kept fertilized and happy, but the water parameters like ammonia and nitrates are kept low and seperrate from the deep substrate or sand bed!
