What is the best soil for planting aquatic plants?
A. The main function of the soil is to hold the plants in place and provide trace elements and provide very little nutrients. Plants will grow in gravel in your pond, aquatic baskets filled with pea gravel, or in holeless pots with a mixture of sand and clay soil. Use as plain soil as you can find. Plants will get most of their nutrients from the water itself. Do not fret over the soil, it is more important to fertilize as recommended by Aquatic-Tabs fertilizer.
