hi john,

i'm using it in my nano but its only been a week.so can't really comment yet.
i'm sure marks using it in his 120cm though.
 
I'm using it in a grow out role at the moment, i'm much happier with it than I was with ADA. It seems less likely to compress and its given better growth compared to aquasoil in my emerese jars.
 
Used it, loved it!

The only real difference that i could see between that and ADA is the clouding that i've experienced with ADA in the past. The grain size of FloraBase appears bigger too.
 
It's quite light and very earthy, but no clouding, filled my tank a few weeks back and it was crystal clear from the outset.
 
My nano has been ongoing for about 3 months now with No Co2, ferts, easycarbo or water changes and looks radiant driven only by stock equipment.

My latest 120cm is the biggest test as it's a high tec set-up so only time will really tell if the substrate holds up to the competition, but currently, it's doing great.
