Normal bog standard toilet rolls are fine.  It's the moist wipes you need to be careful with, lidl supply them, look on the back of the pack for suitability directions.

Mercadona sell loo rolls that are specifically designed for pozo and septic tank use as they break down quickly, they are the blue wrapper with the WWF panda.   The biggest enemy for the septic tank is too much bleach.

Mercadona also sell stuff to aid the working of your septic tank.  If I recall correctly it's  called fosas septicas, comes in a green box and they look like teabags.  It's  part of their standard range and is usually with the cleaning products (tried to do a screen shot but sadly failed) you can look both products up online.

Hope this is helpful.   Regards Karen 

Ps mercadona site says that their moist loo wipes are also ok but I wouldn't use flush them.

Are you certain you have a sceptic tank?
