Aquarium Sand & Gravel in Nepal
Substrate is not only decoration — it houses a large share of the tank's beneficial bacteria and decides which fish are comfortable. Miscava stocks inert gravel, fine sand and planted-tank soils.
- Sand for diggers: Corydoras, loaches and cichlids that sift substrate need fine sand rather than sharp gravel.
- Gravel for flow: Gravel lets water pass through and is more forgiving of leftover food settling in.
- Rinse first: Rinse until the water runs clear, or expect a cloudy tank for the first several days.
Frequently Asked Questions about Fish Aquarium Sand & Gravel
Sand or gravel?
Choose by your fish. Bottom dwellers that sift for food need soft sand to protect their barbels, while most community tanks do perfectly well on gravel, which is easier to vacuum clean.
How deep should the substrate be?
About 5 cm for a planted tank so roots have something to hold, and 2 to 3 cm for a fish-only setup. Deeper sand beds can trap gas pockets unless you stir them occasionally.
