Large Sized Natural Pumice Stones (1.5 Ltr, Wt-450 Gms) for Aquarium, Fountains, Horticulture (Size: 3-5 CM)

Such types of large sized Pumice stones (3-5 CM) are used in Aquarium for water purification and decoration of plants, orchids and Bonsai all over the world. You have to wash it many times before using in aquarium, otherwise water of aquarium may look milky. Though, we can use other smaller sizes of Pumice also, but due to larger size of this Pumice it’s easier to clean them with any brush during scheduled cleaning of aquarium. A plastic mesh net can be used to keep these pumice stones with some pebbles at bottom of aquarium. By doing so, these pumice will not float on the surface of water and they will settle on bottom of the aquarium. Due to their light weight, these pumice stones keep on floating over water. They have small air pockets inside them. They are also used in water fountains and landscaping.

Pumice stones are light weight, hence we can use them for covering soil around plants. By doing so, they do not put load pressure over the soil under them. Your aerated potting mix continues to ensure root aeration. Moreover, volume of these pumice is more than stones, hence in purchase of less pumice, you can cover more area of soil with pumice cover. On contrary, if you buy stones/pebbles, you need to spend more for buying more weight of stones. However, if we use traditional pebbles /stones over soil of plants, roots aeration is hampered upto some extent due to heavy weight of stones. Moreover, stones are not capable to absorb moisture. But Pumice stones can very easily absorb moisture and contribute in creating humid atmosphere around plants and succulents. Requirement of humidity is most important, especially during hot summer.

Pumice Stones are used to make organic potting medium. They are capable to supply needful nutrients to plants. Weight of this pumice pack is 450 Grams. The pack will be sent upon the basis of weight. Approximate volume of this pack will be 1.5 Ltr.

Due to its porous composition, pumice is regarded as the best soil conditioner for healthy growth of plants. If we wish, we can break them into smaller pieces as per our choice, because they are not as strong as normal stones. With a hammer or stone, we can break them. Ph value of pumice is neutral, it is neither acidic nor alkaline.

Pumice stones have a tendency to absorb atmospheric moisture, hence we may observe small droplets inside this pack, as a result of evaporation during hot weather. We have shown here all the 4 sizes of pumice available with us for reference of our customers. If size of Pumice rock is big enough (bigger than 15mm), we can easily see them floating over water due to light weight and availability of air cavities inside pumice rocks. But, if we break them into smaller pieces, air cavities of pumice gets filled up with water and find it difficult to float on water. Hence, if we are planning to buy pumice for pond or aquarium, we recommend to use pumice of 3 cm-5cm.
