Sized roughly between 4–16 mm, these pebbles nestle into the curves and crevices of complex root systems, making them a versatile choice for orchids, succulents, bonsai, and drainage layers in aquariums or aquaponics setups. The material is inert and pH-neutral, which helps maintain stable conditions in a variety of systems.
