Was thinking about using sand in my new 55 gallon setup, the stuff at the store seems awfully expensive, I have heard that some use pool filter sand but I don't think I like the white look. Are there any other alternatives out there? Also, it will be a cichlid tank, but will a pleco be okay with a sand substrate?
Also could anyone tell me how much sand I would need to use in a 55 gal?
