Soothing Shrimp Posted June 13, 2015 Report Share Posted June 13, 2015 Are you asking about UP shrimp sand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiumanfu Posted June 13, 2015 Report Share Posted June 13, 2015 Eco complete is inert so it will work well with rcs. It will not lower your pH. On average, the grains are too big for shrimp to dig around in but there is lots of surface area. Make sure to rinse it really well as I've heard good and bad things about the bacterial liquid it ships in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiscoStDisco Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 I use the FLuval Stratum soil since I have an amazon Sword that is ever growing shoots. It's also suppose to be good for the shimps and help molt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austinzw336 Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 I use fluval stratium and a bottom layer of eco complete mix with florite works pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
