After reading this...
...in this thread http://ukaps.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=6309... I thought I'd start a new thread rather than hijack someone else's.
So I was looking through the June PFK magazine and I saw an ad on page 17 for JBL 'Manado' substrate. Never heard of this before, and google brings up nothing relevent. I didnt see anything on the JBL website either.
The ad shows what looks like a fine clay based substrate. It actually looks a litlle like Red Sea Flora Base, but a little darker. The blurb doesnt elaborate much, saying...
Supports the filter
Optimises plant care
Stores nutrients
Does not reduce Carbonate hardness
Decorative natural colour
Anybody know anything about this? Sounds interesting to me. Aquabasis is quite good, so lets hope this is as good at an equally reasonable price!

It would be good to see some of the bigger companies like JBL creating one of these 'all in one' substrates at a slightly lesser cost.
