    Elwen,

    Where did you hear about this product from?

    So far I've been using only JBL base fert and it's seems to do fine. The best of all, it's not that pricy.
    Cheers!!

    Hi Sherchoo,

    First came across SEACHEM FLOURITE on the internet. THe product is patented and seems to be a naturally occurring substrate that is rich is all the vital elements for plant growth. SEACHEM claims that it would not alter all the parameters such as PH, KH etc. It is basically the same as laterite without all the side effects. I guess it is similar to ADA's Aqua Soil and POwer Sand

    As it is rich in natural minerals eg Iron etc it eliminates the need to have a two layer system such as base fertilizer and gravel on top.

    Sounds good ?? Unfortunately cant seemed to find it anywhere in Singapore

    only place to buy is at aquamart. I tried getting 6 bags (at 37 for 7kg) last time but no stock (stock available in feb only).

    what's good about flourite is that you don't need base fert with it. so you never have to worry about mixing base fert into your water column.

    Hi loupgarou,

    I have tried finding it and i do agree that the information i got is that it is not available. It is the same when i tried to find Aqua Soil and Power Sand. Seems no lfs is bringing in this product, especially since it seems to be a wonderful product.

    I have also called Aquamart but they too do not bring in this product anymore. Wondering if anyone out there is interested in ordering and we could order in bulk. It could be cheaper in this way.
