Hey, so I am in the market for some new (cheaper) subsrate! I have a new 46 gal Bowfront Tank with a general array of community fish and some catfish type.
I have thought about the Pool Filter Sand and can get that for roughly $9 for 50lbs at the local Pool shop, but I would love something Darker...
I am from Hamilton Ontario, just want to know what others in the area have used and the prices.
I have been quoted $44 tax included for 50lbs of Colorquartz T-Grade in Black delivered. But I dont know if thats worth it over the petstore bought products like "Tahitian Moon Sand" or "Onyx Sand"
Also heard about Black Beauty which is a crushed slag including iron used for sand blasting or something, dont know if thats used very often, or a good idea...
Thoughts and ideas please fire away!
