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 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.
