White Tropical Sand?!

[Jay-93]

I'm trying to buy white sand for my tank on the Internet, but I can only find 'marine sand' or 'coral sand'.

Is this okay? I have coral gravel but that raises my Ph, I don't want the sand to raise the Ph too.

Help anyone? Any sites I can get it cheap? I live in the UK

Theres the 'Super Naturals' Stuff from Petsmart, it comes in a sheer white color if you want a recomended brand...

coral sand raises the ph if i remember rightly

i also got play sand from homebase it's not white but you couldnt get much closer only like £3 for a 10kg bag aswell

I think I might just get play sand, chances are white sand will be discoloured after a month or so anyway

Thanks a lot I looked at this site but only at the coral sand at the top!

Overlooked the silica stuff
