Tmc Eco Reef Sand 10kg (fine)

TMC Eco Reef Sand – Fine Grade (10kg)

TMC Eco Reef Sand (Fine, 10kg) is a sustainable, reef-safe marine substrate made from 100% natural, sea-washed British seashells. Specially developed for marine and reef aquariums, this fine-grade sand provides a clean, natural look while delivering essential calcium carbonate to help buffer pH and support healthy coral growth.

With its smooth texture and bright off-white appearance, the fine grain mimics tropical reef environments and is ideal for shallow sand beds, soft-bottom aquascapes, and tanks housing burrowing fish or invertebrates. Its mineral content helps stabilize water chemistry, especially in systems with high biological demand.

Eco Reef Sand is free from artificial dyes, bleaches, or chemicals, making it a responsible and environmentally conscious choice for aquarists who want performance without harming wild reefs.
