Nice, I think the sand is better for plants anyways than gravel. Gravel is better for bacteria and micro and dirt/sand is better for plants, just my opinion. What kind of fish are you gonna keep?
I have a bunch of fish some rainbow sharks, mollies platys I think they're called, angelfish, turtles( my natural fertilizer) two Juvi green Texas chiclids and killifish, I also have a Juvi chinese hi fin shark and a Juvi black ghost knife fish, but I have a 150 waiting for them
I did my first water change with my black diamond sand and it was super easy! I picked up every piece of poop and Didn't even cloud my tank. I love sand and I won't go to gravel ever.
I went to tractor supply. And bought 50lbs of black diamond sand blasting sand for $8.50 it was super easy to clean. Only had to rinse the bucket about 4 times. Till the water ran clear. Even though I just filled the bucket a quarter of way.
