You need to know.

I didn't realize until after about 3 hours of unloading all the gravel and cleaning the tank, removing the sand and adding to the tank that I was actually putting my fish at risk and increasing maintenance was a nightmare . Dangerous gas bubbles form in the sand that can kill fish if you don't stir the sand every week. I have an aquarium with plants that are difficult to move and large stones, and for health reasons I did not want to reach into the aquarium with my hands and arms. So far I…

  • Not the best

I went ahead and gave this one 5 stars because I read reviews about it so I was expecting the problem I was having. This is great sand and more than enough for my small community aquarium. I switched from gravel to sand BUT I washed the sand in a bag because I didn't have a chemical protection bucket on hand and I "thought" I washed it well.

Since the side of the package was torn when it arrived I couldn't turn the package over and see if I should rinse it out or not. I went ahead and used it without rinsing which was a mistake. I ended up with a very cloudy tank and a filter that had to work overtime to…

Fantastic Planted Aquarium Substrate

I just got back into fishing and decided to use all live plants, which I've never done before. It's been 10 weeks and I already have four tanks. I used this sand in my 30 gallon and put it in an upgraded 6.5 gallon tank today. It is beautiful and I am delighted with my purchase! Advantages: 1. Very good for sensitive bottom dwellers like Corey Cats. Mine are constantly playing and romping, leaving happy little footprints all over the tank. They love it! My mystery snails and Malaysian…
