Estes' Gravel is Fantastic!

[TomK2]

I just filled up a 55 gal tank for goldfish. I bought 50 pounds of Estes' gravel at the lfs. This stuff is great! No matter how hard I churned or swished it in a bucket, I could barely get the rinse water tinted. This stuff is so clean that rinsing is optional! Here's the company info:

Clifford W. Estes Co.
40 Vreeland Ave
Totowa, NJ 07512
(973) 890-2220

Highly recomended!

I second the recommendation.
Estes has lots of different colors and gravel sizes to choose from.
I would still recommend rinsing, but like TomK2 said, this product is already very clean.

I also use Estes in my 10g and some in my 125g.

Good stuff!

I like the Estes colored gravel more than anything other colored gravel I have found. The coloring is extremely tough and it seems like no ammount of gravel vacuuming chips away at it.

I use the Estes nature stones in my 20 gallon and 55 gallon tanks. I love it too, great substrate and I like that it comes in so many sizes. The black gravel in my 29 gallon tank is not small enough for my liking.

Some of their 'natural' colours are quite nice, and their 'special black' is fabulous in show tanks.
