leafy™ Aquiva - 004 Smart Aqua Soil

leafy™ Aquiva is a high-performance substrate designed for both freshwater aquariums and tropical houseplants. Made from natural soil and volcanic ash, it creates a mineral-rich, slightly acidic environment that encourages strong root development and healthy plant growth.

Its porous structure holds moisture well without becoming waterlogged. This makes it a favorite among indoor plant lovers especially for sprouting Alocasia corms, rooting cuttings, and growing aroids in controlled setups. You can also mix it with perlite for added drainage if needed.

In aquariums, Aquiva works beautifully as a base for aquascaping and planted tanks. The fine granules are easy to shape into layers, and the volcanic content supports aquatic plant health by helping to buffer the water to a slightly acidic pH perfect for nutrient absorption. It also provides a safe, stable habitat for shrimp, offering plenty of texture for foraging and hiding.
