Comments

PaulPaul: The sand itself is perfectly fine but it came with a packet of liquid for clarifying the water and I put it in let it sit for over a day and it looks like I poured in milk it's so cloudy, mind you it wasn't very cloudy before it was almost clear so this made it way worse.

LeslieLeslie: Le sac m'a paru petit d'abord. J'ai mis la terre en sac a filter media, j'ai mis du gravier autour et un fond de sable blanc pour cacher les sac. Puis j'ai mis environ 1/2 sac de sable golden rincé 3 ou 4 fois et c'est bon. J'ai rempli très tranquillement mon aquarium et l'eau est très claire.
C'est un work in progress mais cette photo donne quand même un aperçu du résultat en eau!

Amazon Customer: Its sand, but clean unlike if you go to the beach. I use it for some indoor plants and its awesome because then i don’t have to worry about bringing home any bugs etc.

Ashley: I like the way it looks in the tank! It definitely requires ALOT of washing before it goes in the tank because it has a lot of dust, that’s the only reason it’s not 5 star. It does however have a tank clearing liquid included that helps settle the cloudy water once added which was nice.

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: I love this sand, very easy to put in and fairly easy to keep clean, I roughly have a ten gallon and got two bags but probably would buy a third for aesthetics. But overall great product for the price and beginner friendly!

Isabel: I have not "used" the product yet, but I have it sitting in a cycling tank. I am confident that my fish are going to love this sand. I've used play sand before which was kind of rough and my cories and kuhlis didn't like it so much, the cories liked to dig but the kuhlis would never burrow. With this sand I think that my kuhlis and cories will both love it. I'll have to do more research for the cories though, I get conflicting information to if they prefer sand or gravel but mine seem to dig more in sand so I think they like sand more. This is completely worth every cent. Will be buying more of this brand whenever I can get more tanks.

M. C. PayetteM. C. Payette: Rinse this -- a lot -- and you won't have any issues. I have a pico tank with this sand, a piece of soft sea fan coral, and Marimo in it. Before I added the Marimo, I washed the sand for a good 20 or so minutes before the water ran clear. I put the sand I wanted to use into the tank (easy enough for me to do because of the small size of the tank, but the same concept would work just fine in a Homer bucket) and then ran cold water over it, using my hands to constantly move the sand. Yes, I lost a teeny bit of sand, but those are the pieces that would otherwise be floating in your tank, so best to flush them out right away. Now every time I do a water change, I can just run the water straight into the tank and not worry about upsetting the sand base because the water doesn't cloud up at all. I think the reviewers who complain about cloudy water haven't cleaned it thoroughly before setting up their tank. It does take time, but it's not difficult and it's just a matter of moving the sand as you move water through it until the sand stops floating up to the top.

The photo I've included is of my Marimo tank after a full water change as described above (just running water full...
