Which Sand To Use In Tank

[Gold-Fisher]

I want to replace the gravel with sand, which type can I use?

 

[aaronnorth]

I use playsand from argos (£2.50 for 15kg)

any DIY chain or like Aaron says Argos will have:

Playsand - moist
Dry Sand - Dry as the name suggests due to sterilisation
Silver Sand - As above but a fancy name.

They are all white-yellow and pretty fine consistency as they are all the same sand

Thanks, any special maintainence issues with it?

you have to wave your hand above the sand to get the waste up then siphon off,

wash thoroughly before use as it is dirty
