New Tank New Substrate

I am replacing my 6 foot tank with another one in June and I am considering using Tropica soil for the substrate or mineralised soil which I started to do back in Feb.

I am a bit concerned about using Tropica soil or any other clay based substrate as I have haerd that they my not last very long before they turn to mud.

For those that use these types of complete substrates how long have they lasted for you? I don’t change my scapes around very often I normally leave them for around five years. But I wouldn’t want to be changing the substrate every two years as they are not cheap.

Which would you suggest best suits my requirements?


Thanks

Col
 
Tropica soil powder has been in my tank for almost 2 years and so far it still looks the same.
