Controsand is a natural substrate custom blended for freshwater aquarium and terrarium use. Made available in various tones and granule sizes to achieve the perfect aquascape, it is safe for fish, invertebrates and reptiles. Use in conjunction with Ultum Nature Systems Controsoil aquarium plant substrate to achieve optimum results.

Ultum Nature Systems Controsand is a line of decorative sand substrates designed for use in planted aquariums and aquascaping. Maui Controsand is a fine-grain natural sand. Its cool-toned palette works well when paired with natural stone and provides subtle contrast.

Whether you're setting up your first aquascape, or you've been in the hobby for years, Controsand is easy to use. Just rinse the substrate gently to remove finer grains, then spread it evenly in your aquarium for a naturally earthy tone.

Key Features & Benefits

• Root Development Support: Controsand's unique granule composition encourages strong root development, ensuring your plants anchor securely into the substrate and absorb nutrients effectively.
• Compatible with Bottom-dwellers: Perfect for shrimp or other bottom-dwelling species that sift through sand.
