Worthwhile purchase for aquaponics setup

As someone who was hesitant to invest in hydroponics or aquaponics I'm glad I came across this substrate. It's DEFINITELY great value for the price, and has improved the health and growth of my plants and fish .Based on our own experience, it's clear that the media is effective in maintaining water quality and circulation. The only downside is that it may require more frequent changing compared to other pet supplies for aquariums. Nonetheless, it`s still a highly recommended purchase for anyone

Pros
  • Can be reused for several years before needing replacement, making it cost-effective in the long run.
Cons
  • It may require more frequent cleaning than other hydroponic media, leading to higher maintenance needs.

The porous, lightweight material has excellent water retention capabilities and promotes healthy root growth for plants.

Overall, highly recommend…

  • Arqlite Hydroponic Media Regular Hydroponics Aquaponics is made from recycled materials, making it an eco-friendly choice for gardening.
Cons
  • It is not as widely available as other hydroponic media options in some areas, making it difficult for some individuals to obtain.

They don't float and hold water as well as Hydrotones

I have used both Hydrotones and these Arklite rocks in my hydro garden with some expensive plants. I had to go away for the weekend and wasn't worried because my system was working great. I used 3 hours fill and 3 hours drain for my ebb and flow system. When I returned, my hydrotonic plants were in bloom and the Arklite pebbles were mostly dead. The few that survived fell and suffered. Unfortunately, that's because these pebbles don't retain moisture the way hydroclays do. I suspect it's…
