Care Tips from Users

  • πŸ’‘ Rinse in a colander with very, very small holes before putting it in your tank. That’ll keep any clouding of tank water to a minimum and the clouding won’t last long before the filter is able to clear it.

"This was the best buy for my fish. Looks fantastic in the tank. I bought 2 bags for a 30 gallon tank which was plenty for that tank. Will definitely buy again if I need to. Haven't done any maintenance yet since it was just installed so can't speak to that part yet."

"Chewy please package your gravel better. Dropping 40 lbs in a 32 lbs box is a setup for package failure and that is what happened."

Bottom Line

Recommended for those looking to enhance their aquarium's appearance, but be mindful of potential packaging issues. It's a good value for the price, but ensure it's well-packaged to avoid damage.
