suggestions for extra gravel

[Meredith]

I have tons and tons of extra gravel. about 20 lbs that I just took out of my tank, and a bunch of other gravel that I have had in other tanks. I couldn't bring myself to throw it away. Any suggestions on what I can do with this stuff or a good way to store it?

Try lining a few small boxes with trash bags. That will keep it clean till needed.

What I do with extra gravel is put it on top of the dirt for my houseplants. It makes the plant much more attractive, especially ones that grow tall and you see the dirt.

BTW - I am talking about "natural" gravel here, the pink fluorescent stuff just doesn't do it for me or the ficus!
