Hi There.
Shortly I will be stripping down my current set up and starting over, but before doing so I am curious to know if cat litter is going to be a viable option? Can anybody please share their experiences of using cat litter as a substrate?
Is it easy to work with?
Do plants anchor well when positioned, or will I forever be replanting?
Will it turn to mush after 6months?
I am concerned that the brand I was planning on using is going to be a little too lightweight to maintain a decent scape, and that it will get blown around from the force of the spray bar, and generally be a pain in the a*se to work with?
The main reason for me choosing this path is that of financial reasons. I have a 1010x450x500-180ltr and plan on going fairly deep with the substrate, so ADA or NatureSoil is out of the question.
If anybody has used, or is using cat litter as a substrate please share your experiences, good and bad. I would rather make the right choice now than live to regret it later, if ya know what I mean.
Cheers all.
