The number of cycles of the soil and recharges its luminosity is not limited to, the service life is also not limited. Important characteristics of any aquarium soil are the shape and size. Aquarium substrate should be easily permeable to the horizontal and vertical flows of water, the soil must 'breathe'. Glowing in the dark aquarium ground consists of elements of approximately the same round shape, emitting a pebble, and the intervals between the constituent particles of soil aquarium large enough to ensure good water exchange. Imagine itself, for comparison, the soil consisting of particles of different sizes. How would such a ground is not interested in watching an aquarium environment over time can deteriorate the ground cease to 'breathe', small particles fill the spaces between large, the water in the soil begins to stagnate, you are bogging with all its consequences. Similarities and round glowing in the dark aquarium soil makes caring for them simple enough so aquarium soil is well cleared siphon contaminants that sink into the ground and can muddy the waters, and as easily washed away from him. As for the roundness of the particles glow in the dark aquarium soil, in my opinion, this is much better than ground chipped and sharp edges, though, because of such edges can injure fish.

Before you fall asleep glowing in the dark soil in the aquarium tank, it is necessary in the usual way rinse to get rid of fine particles and dust, while it is better not to use soap and chemicals. Glowing in the dark aquarium soil acts as a primitive mechanical filter, in which smaller particles fall through the mist and contaminating the water, which then can be easily cleaned. Another significant feature is the aquarium soil – color. In the aquarium can be filled monochrome ground, but may be interesting to mix a few colors.
