Aquarium Advice Regular
I just added 4 Black Kuhli Loaches to my 10 gallon tank with the general substrate you would find in an aquarium. The loaches cannot burrow into this and I was wondering what substrate would be best to add to my tank. I have black in the aquarium now and I would really like to keep it that way I also have live plants. I’m not sure if I should keep half the substrate I have and switch out the rest of what I should do. I don't know how I would go about changing it out either since it is an established tank.
I was told by an experienced aquarium owner and tropical fish store owner that sand would tear up my filter, there is a finer substrate that I could switch to but he did not sell it, and to just switch all the gravel out at once but I would like to get other feedback.
Thank you all in advance for you help.
