During my research I have seen conflicting reports on whether or not Tropica Aquarium Soil will break down over time. The reason I'm trying to find out is I'm thinking of using it in my planned planted tank but I'm not your usual aquascaper. I want to get the aquarium setup and scaped and then keep the aquarium as it is until I drop dead or it breaks.
I know the nutrients in the substrate will run out, I'm not bothered about that, I'm happy using root tabs. What I want to know is whether the soil will physically breakdown and turn to mush in time or if it will remain intact and I can continue refueling it with root tabs indefinitely? Anyone got any idea?
