Review on 🐠 Enhance Your Aquarium with Carib Sea ACS05840 Super Naturals Crystal River Sand – 5-Pound Bag! by Tia Campbell

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Beautiful crystal sand for my fish.

The sand is beautiful. A bit of beige mixed with white but the crystals are very pretty nonetheless. A little difficult to wash without a hose, but a few good bucket rinses, like washing rice, helped. Just don't dump the water down the drain, it's bad if the sand gets stuck in the drain! Instead, I throw the muddy water onto the street. I like the extra small pack of the biomagnetic clarifier. This made the water clear faster. Nice gesture. This filled a fairly thin layer in half of my expanded 35 gallon tank. You can see in the photos. I need 3 more bags if I want the entire tank to be filled with a thicker 1 inch layer. Luckily, half of them are good enough looking. Haven't tried cleaning it yet, so I'm a little worried about sand getting sucked into my pump. I guess I'll find out on cleaning day. hope this works ;)
