Good Substrate

Easy to work with when shaping aquarium. Also didn't cloud water at all, as I was concerned would happen. I washed the sand briefly and it was ready to go once I put in the additive that was included to reduce sand in the water. Looks nice and natural as well

Yes, I recommend this product.

Favorite Substrate!

I bought this from my local PetCo to replace the flat glass marbles I had in my two betta tanks. The marbles are very pretty, but waste gets under them too easily and makes cleaning the tanks very difficult. A friend recommended I get this sand instead and I am so happy I did! You must rinse the sand thoroughly before adding fish to the tank (this is printed on the back of the bag itself). After rinsing, the water will still be cloudy for about 20 minutes or so, but afterwards it settles quite nicely. This sand is soooo easy to clean. All of the fish waste sits right on top, so I just graze over it in circular motions with my aquarium siphon. I would definitely buy again and have recommended it to many friends!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Will this sand work in a freshwater aquarium?

    Perfectly fine to use in freshwater. My bottom feeders love it. Its very soft for your sensitive fish like corydoras

      Can you mix this with any of the CaribSea gravels?

      1. 11 years ago
        I mixed it with their plain 10lb bag of natural sand and it filled my 20 gallon perfect and still had lots of good bacteria!
