UNS Controsoil
UNS Controsoil is an active aquasoil used in planted freshwater aquariums, shrimp tanks, and aquascaping layouts. It can help support rooted plants and may buffer water toward a slightly acidic pH depending on source water, aquarium setup, and maintenance routine.
Controsoil can be used as a main planted substrate or combined with decorative sand or gravel accents. It is commonly used for stem plants, crypts, carpeting plants, mosses, and planted shrimp aquariums.
UNS Controsand & Decorative Gravel
UNS Controsand and decorative gravels are inert substrate options used for aquascaping details, pathways, foreground areas, accents, and natural-looking layouts. These sands and gravels come in different tones, making it easier to create contrast and depth in an aquascape.
Decorative sands and gravels are often paired with active aquasoil to separate planting areas from open sand areas or pathways. Choose substrate based on the plants, livestock, maintenance routine, and layout style you want to create.
UNS Aquascaping Tools
UNS aquascaping tools can help with planting, trimming, leveling substrate, and maintaining planted aquariums. Tools such as tweezers, scissors, spatulas, and scrapers make it easier to work in planted tanks and aquascapes.
Long tweezers are useful for placing small plants and carpeting plants. Scissors help with trimming stem plants and foreground plants. Substrate tools can help shape slopes, paths, and planting areas.
Aquascaping with UNS
Aquascaping combines substrate, stone, wood, plants, and aquarium equipment to create a planned freshwater layout. UNS aquariums and supplies can be used for nature-style aquariums, planted tanks, shrimp aquariums, and modern freshwater displays.
