## Overview

Fluval Peat Granules (500g) are a premium, all-natural filter media designed to soften freshwater aquarium water and optimize pH levels for sensitive tropical fish species. Compatible with over 15 Fluval filter models, these highly concentrated granules release essential humic acids and tannins that replicate natural habitats, promoting healthier, more active fish. Easy to use and maintain with a recommended 4-week replacement, this product is a must-have for any serious aquarist aiming to create a thriving aquatic ecosystem.

## Description

Fluval Peat Granules are the all-natural way to soften aquarium water and achieve the pH levels required for breeding and rearing certain tropical fish. Peat contains humic acid, tanning agents, and trace elements that are essential for various life processes. Highly concentrated for maximum effectiveness, this product is recommended for fish that prefer soft, acidic water.

Review: Fish love the tannins - You’re missing out if you’re not using peat granules in media bags for your filter. Peat releases natural tannins that fish love to live in, resembles a natural environment vs trapped in a tank.
Review: Fish love it - This is cleaner and easier to work with than garden peat moss. I also feel it is safer as it is pure and meant for the aquarium. The box may seem small, but you don't need much and last a long time. I put some in a knee high pantyhose tied a knot and put it in the tank. By doing it this way all the pieces stay inside of the pantyhose and doesn't float around the tank. At first it floats, but I pushed it behind the filter stem under the water. In a couple of days the peat moss is wet enough to sink. I noticed the water becomes very soft, but it hasn't lowed the PH. The water does get a dirty, tea stained look and if you are directly above the tank you can smell a little bit of the dirt, but all the fish seem to love it. Fish like the neon tetras that would normally hide behind my plants and rock now come out to the front of the tank.

This is cleaner and easier to work with than garden peat moss. I also feel it is safer as it is pure and meant for the aquarium. The box may seem small, but you don't need much and last a long time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Will slowly lower the PH
*by P***F on November 30, 2020*

I was having a major PH issue and needed to make the water a little more acidic. My tank really wasn't big enough for a piece of driftwood so this was the next best option. I put some in a bowl and rinsed it well and put it in a bag in my HOB filter. It has not lowered the PH all the way to a neutral 7 but that is because I have not added enough. It got it from 7.8 down to 7.2 or so. Everything is stable now. The fish are happy and the algae is nowhere the issue it was. I can add more later if needed but don't want to risk any kind of crash. Keep in mind I didn't use a whole lot and I always run carbon but there were no tannins at all that discolored the water. It is crystal clear and now has a safer PH. I put it in a zip lock bag and have plenty for any need in the future.
