[EHEIM OPAL] NAG POTS


So you may be asking, what is a NAG POT?

These are Aqua Plant Cultivation Glass Pots. I was lucky enough to purchase a few from Aquakitz to try out today and am quite happy with the build quality.

They are used to create another level to cultivate sensitive plant species in the aquarium. I have put mine towards the back of the aquarium.

There are several advantages:
1. Enables weak plants to recover by giving them access to more light higher up.
2. Creates more space in the aquarium
3. Looks nice / stylish in a way
4. Helps organise plants better
5. Enables experimentation using different types of soils
6. Keeps the soil in one spot

Disadvantages:
1. As it is glass it is prone to breaking just like the CO2 diffusers.
2. Algae magnets
3. Increases clutter in the aquarium
