Review on πŸ–€ Activ Betta Aquarium Sand: 1-Pound of Stunning Black Gravel for Perfect Aquatic Environment by Seth Gomez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice looking sand

Nice looking sand but 2 bags are definitely not enough for our 3 gallon tank, I would suggest at least 3 or 4 for this tank. I'm not sure how good sand is for putting fish in a new aquarium. Somewhat unexpectedly a rooster fell on us, he had a 1 gallon bowl, our house wasn't warm enough to keep the water warm enough for him so we had to quickly move him to a larger pool with heater as he was in our lethargic became cold house about 3 days later, not sure if it really is "current cycling" but Betta seems happy in her new home. Update: The sand has a nice sheen and is much nicer than the plain black Petco aquarium sand that we bought in addition to the Activ sand, which helps keep our plants in good condition.

Pros
  • Silica and phosphate free
Cons
  • Big and bulky
