Fine, soft, perfect, safe sand!!!
Wow I wish I could figure out how to add a photo to my review because this stuff is beautiful. If you are looking for very fine sand, for aquatic life that may be sensitive to sharp edges or at risk of eating gravel this is the stuff to buy!! It provides very beautiful, natural look and is safe. It works for any aquarium.I used two bags (the set of two) and it was perfect for my 10 gallon African dwarf frog tank. It is beautiful and easy to clean. When cleaning there is a little dust but if you do it correctly itâs very minimal. Also, when setting it up there was no cloudiness thanks to the product they provided with the sand.I highly recommend this aquatic sand!! Well worth the cost, I promise you that!

Friendly and Aesthetically Pleasing Aquarium Sand
have found this sand to be exceptionally user-friendly and remarkably easy to maintain. Cleaning it is a straightforward process; simply place it in a bucket of water and agitate it until the water becomes entirely cloudy. Repeat this step as necessary until the water clears up. Once this is achieved, allow the sand to dry thoroughly before use. It is crucial to emphasize the importance of thorough cleaning, as these sands often accumulate dust and various debris during their time in the warehouse before packaging.The visual appeal of this sand is truly remarkable. It enhances the aesthetic of my aquarium significantly, making everything within it stand out beautifully. So far, my experience with this product has been entirely positive, and I have encountered no issues or drawbacks to speak of. In summary, I am thoroughly satisfied with this product and highly recommend it to fellow aquarium enthusiasts. It has met and exceeded my expectations in every way.

Looks beautiful!
I love the color of this sand. Itâs very very fine sand so be wary of that when purchasing. I can see all the fish poop which I think is a good thing so I know when to clean. My turtle loves digging through it and the water never gets cloudy! Make sure to rinse before adding to your tank

Great!
This is a must have for starting any tank. Good amount for the money and easy to put in the tank without having to rinse. Have had it in my tank for a while and the only complaint is that the white color shows any plant debris or things that settle to the bottom so I would get black if I were to order again. Other than that it looks great and I find more fish especially bottom dwellers prefer this rather than gravel.

Nice quality
Iâve had the sand for over a year and it works better than the rocks. It does not get as dirty and it is easier to clean. It makes our tank look nicer, definitely purchasing again.

Honestly, I’m so glad I bought the sand despite the bad reviews. It’s perfect and I highly recommend it. Yes, it is a lil muddy at first but if you rinse throughly before putting it in the tank then give it a couple minutes after you have both the water and sand in the tank, water should clear up and the sand isn’t as muddy. It went well with my new set up.

Absolutely beautiful!!!
Excellent sand! People have no idea about how use it and that’s the only reason about the bad reviews. You have to rinse it very well with a little bit of soap, let it there about three days waiting for all the particles go down to the bottom with the filter on. After you see the water clear, you gonna have to change the sponge for the filter cause they are going to be terribly dirty. And all done! Beautiful sand, easy to clean and a natural white sand color. I love it!!!

10/10 Reccomend
Love love love love love!!! I wish I could live in this. Incredibly fine and soft. Rinsed really well, looks beautiful in my tank, my corys and frogs love it. Really happy with it. Will continue to buy as my collection grows! It cleans fairly well. Most debris sits on the surface and sucks up quickly with a strong siphon.ALSO, a big deciding factor for me was how light it was going to be. I didn’t want tan. It is a beautiful bright white in case that’s what you’re liking for too. It does look a little dirty sometimes between water changes with extra food or poops on the surface, but as long as you have a good siphon its not a big deal.
