Hi guys
Quick Q
Has anyone used JBL Volcano Mineral as a substrate base?
If so, is it worthwhile?
Thanks
Alex

Hi Alex
I've used it in my 'scape (Journal - After The Riffle), which is my first real attempt, so I'm sorry I've nothing to compare with.
I was concerned about depth of ADA Aquasoil at the back, becoming compacted and anaerobic.
I didn't use the Volcano Mineral Powder, but added some TNC Plugs instead.
No real issues with plant growth. Seems to work well. However, not used soil alone to be able to tell you what results I would have got without.
If you're planning to use a deep layer of soil, I'd be tempted to use this or something similar.
Hope this helps.

Love your scape. Looks spectacular! Congratulations.
I'm going to invest in the volcano rock as it seems to work well.
