Glass Gravel? Catfish? (added on further down)
I have a 28 gal. octagonal tank, had it for years. I have been using rock/gravel that is not glass bought from pet stores over the years.
I finally found a home for my Pleco and still have 3 guppies and a tetra in there. I use plastic plants tied to fake rocks and a piece of fake coral for decoration.
Since I am low on fish, the plants are ready to be trashed (turning black) and the Pleco left a lot of yuk stuff behind, I am thinking about changing everything but the water out.
I like the looks of the glass gravel but don't know how safe it is to use for fish, filtering, breakage. Since I intend to scoop all rock presently in there out (after removing the fish into a safer environment while I do so), and putting in new plant stuff, maybe live?, maybe not, I would value opinions by people who actually know what they are doing, which is not me.
Any suggestions?
