at the cost of sounding like a cheapskate,
i spend quite a bit of time up at lake erie and was wondering if it was possible to take the sand from the lake beach, boil it and use it as substrate.
or do you think the bacteria from the lake would be too harmful even if boiled?
i know i could pick up enough sand for $10, but when you are on a budget, every bit helps.
TIA!
