So i went to the craft store on the search for some small river rock and i noticed they had sand. I wanted to get a bag or two of the black sand but wasn't sure if it was a good idea. Just wondering if its ok to use.

i'd double and triple rinse it! after my set up using childrens play sand from lowes, i had an extremely cloudy tank for several days until it all settled. looks great now.

Well i put another 10lb of black exxo terra desert sand instead of the micheals craft store sand. i thought i rinsed it good but i was wrong, it turned my tank black lol. I let it settle for about 20 min then turned on the filters and by the next morning it was clear.
