Is 10Kg Of Sand Enough?

[James9114]

hi, so im going to change from gravel to sand and was wondering if 10kg of sand is enough in a 110litre tank with the base being 14 by 31 inch.

Thanks in advance

It might be enough, but if it comes in 10kg bags, I'd get two. I got two 15kg bags for my 48" x 15" and I have a bucket or so left over; useful for topping up as you will end up syphoning some out while you're water changing

i think it is as its the bags of argos play sand im going to purchase but if its 15 il just get one if its 10 which i beleive it is il get 2

Mine is Argos playsand, and it's 15kg sacks. I would say one would be enough for your tank then

I'm sure you won't regret changing; I love my sand; it looks brill and my corys adore it; I'll never, ever keep corys on gravel again
