Father Fish Aquarium Substrate Supplement. (160 gal/600 litres)
Contains 11 unique ingredients to prolong, increase diversity, and strengthen the life of your substrate.
A single purchase contains 1 Quart (4 cups / approx. 1 litre) of supplement, which weighs about 650g. This is enough to effectively fertilise an 160 gallon / 600 litre tank of standard, rectangular dimensions - Especially tall tanks are likely to need less per gallon.
DEEP SUBSTRATE INSTRUCTIONS YOUTUBE/FATHER FISH
1. Mix 2 quarts (8 cups) peat moss, 1 quart (4 cups) potting soil, 1 quart (4 cups) compost, and 1/2 cup additive per 20 gallon / 60 litre tank.
2. Add water to create a thick mud pie consistency, similar to wet concrete Let sit for 2 hrs minimum or overnight.
3. Carefully place 1” of the mixture into tank. Spray to rinse mud splashes. Do not add more than 1” of the mud mixture.
4. Add 2" of dry or rinsed sand to cover soil.
5. Carefully add water. Use a cover on the sand (plate, bowl, plastic bag…) to prevent disturbing sand and substrate.
6. Add hardscape, decorations, filter, and light.
7. Plant heavily with fast growing stem plants (anacharis, watersprite, Val, cabomba). Bury roots only 1" into the sand.
8. Lighting should be left on 24/7 for at least a week.
9. Add a few small fish on day 2.
10. Do not feed for 3 days. Then very tiny amounts. More fish can be added weekly.
11. Week 2 add portion of your resurrection jar (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gofrylDCwV0&t=96s) to begin developing a food web.
Sit back and enjoy your masterpiece. You have successfully created a Father Fish Deep Substrate Living Aquarium. Congratulations!
