Pearl Beach™ is an all natural aragonite
substrate for all types of marine, reef and tropical aquaria.
Its chemical composition will assist in stabilizing calcium and
alkalinity while preventing large pH declines. Similar in appearance
to Meridian™, it's grain size is considerably more varied. Unlike
competing “wet” gravels,
Pearl Beach™ is
sold dry: this bag contains 35% more gravel than a bag of wet
gravel of equal weight. These products imply that they
contain living, microscopic animals when in fact
they only contain common bacteria. Dry or wet, there
are bacteria on every substrate available. If one
is concerned with shortening the tank cycle time
for a new system, then the use of a product designed
for that particular purpose would be more appropriate
(such as Seachem's Stability®).
Simply rinse before use to remove any residual dust.
To determine the number of bags required for your aquarium, please
note that each bag (10 kg, 22 lbs) occupies a volume of 8,600 cm3
(525 cu. in.). To determine your desired volume multiply tank width
by length by desired depth.

Wondering how many bags you will need for your project? It's easy to figure out with this gravel calculator. Just enter the length and width of your aquarium along with the desired depth of the substrate and click calculate. Note: The calculator will always round up. For example, you can't pruchase 1.3 bags, so it will return 2 bags.
