Hello,
I just bought alot of Aquaclay ground substrate for my planted fish tank 4-5hrs ago, And i dumped them all in the fish tank and for some reason some of the pebbles/gravel seem to be floating on the surface, not sure why.
I talked to penn about it and he told me to wait a few days and they might sink.

Anyone used this type of gravel before?

hey there, not this specific type, but on my last batch of black gravel, i have quite a bit floating on the surface.
I just scooped it out with a net, for it looked annoying.

If it's not half of the gravel that's floating, but just bits and pieces, get your net and start scooping!

You can allways scoop out any non sinking parts later.
