DOES NOT air dry! Hooray! A must for a messy Walstad aquarium

Need red terracotta clay for the Walstad aquarium. It was hard to find in local craft stores in a non-air drying clay formula. Air dry versions contain potentially toxic additives that cause them to cure simply by exposure to air, not by burning. The clay is rolled into 1/2 inch balls and these are set 1 inch apart in organic potting soil before adding the gravel/sand cover. This is the addition of extra iron for plant roots. I was very thankful to have found this beautiful tone here on Revane and hopefully it worked for my purposes. It was supposed to be red (with a higher iron content) and it seemed to be a bit browner from red, so I'm hoping everything is ok.

Pros
  • All-purpose clay: ideal for both novice and experienced potters
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Nice color and easy to use. Just let it dry on itโ€™s own and it is a nice pinkish color.
