Im not sure if folks have touched on this yet here on this forum, but I wanted to share the results I had with this substrate in a test tank we had.

Mineralized soil is very inexpensive to make, it just is a long process to make it. AT $10 to fill a 120G tank, thats not bad for having a nutrient rich substarte that can last a decade.

It worked pretty well for me and our Florida hard water. I could not keep any soft water plants, but the end results were pretty good. Keep in mind that this tank has no real scape in mind. Its just a tank I packed as many stems as I could to see what would fare well and what would not.
