What are the ingredients? The site does not give any information about this product. If its 100% silica (quartz) it should be fine to use. It just needs to be well rinsed before using.
 
find a swiming pool store buy there filter sand it works great and dose not plug up your filter system
 
You should try pool filter sand. It's super cheap ($10/50 pounds), and it's course enough not get stirred up too much. And it's perfectly safe. ;)
 
sorry it was biomix washed beach sand, play sand
