    A tasteful and striking mix of sand grains approx 0.2-1mm in size. This aquarium sand is to be placed in the base of the aquarium as a bed to house plants and provides a base for rocks, stones and other aquatic ornaments.

    Coming in a handy size bag this pack is ideal for nano and small aquariums up to 15L and also as a 'top-up' when you need a little bit more.

    This versatile gravel can be used in aquariums, terrariums or even planters.

    We recommend you rinse the sand in a little cold water to remove any dust and particles before placing in the aquarium.


    Colours: Granite Black

    A refined looking aquarium awaits you...

    I absolute love this, initially I thought I bought too little but there was more than I thought in the bag! First time using sand and I can definetly vouch for this, the colour also makes my plants and rocks to pop

    This is lovely sand and about the same size grains as table salt. I used this as substrate in my small shrimp colony tank. It needs quite a bit of rinsing so you will find it is more dark grey than black.

    I was not disappointed however as expected this. This colour really helps plants really stand out nicely and I think appears far more natural.

    As it is in my smaller tank the cherry shrimps think they should blend in what this actually does is make their colours more vivid.

    I am a fan of sand it has to be said as it looks nice and is actually easy to clean if you siphon gently. This is great for also clear or non planted areas as you can create beaches,paths and stages at the front of a display and as it is easy on the eye it can make a display look a little bigger. It is great for blending with larger substrate too.

    Looks great but the picture doesn't lie, it is quite a bit lighter in colour than the other black substrates that Aquaessentials sell.
