"I tried the sand and it was awesome! I have it in my 45 gallon with 24 neons 11 black neons 5 chinesse algae eaters and 2 rainbow fish. It is a really good product and is an amazing sight to see.
If your new to sand its actually really easy to clean just take your gravel vack and hold it an inch or two above sand and your done.
Just a fact but algae eaters, plectoes, catfish, sharks, and a few others all can die over time by gravel but its proven that sand lets them live longer.
A really good product I loved I hope you do to.
Happy aquariuming"
