Chihiros Aqua soil substrate

[Hanuman]

Here are the manufacturer's bold claims that range from "revolutionary" to "ultimate aquasoil".

Element content percentage:
Active Carbon 10%
SiO2 52.21%
Al2O3 17.25%
Fe2O3 13.65%
CaO 6.89%

I picked up some popcorn. This will be fun to watch.

I wonder what is active carbon? Is it different from passive carbon? Does it surpass fresh or natural carbon?
Is it just as active as this?

I found the usage of "revolutionary" and "unique" quite amusing, had a good snicker this morning 🤭 Thanks for that Hanuman

Reminds me of someone at work who objected to using a RAG scale when measuring performance, so we humorously suggested a shaws of brown scale for different shades of s@#t

More than half of the bag is silica sand so we can say most of it is holy grail... some impurities such as rust, old cans and charcoal mixed in there, another me-too product hits the market.
