Review: Nice aesthetic. Don't need to way. - This is a really nice gravel. The price was really low when I purchased it. Each individual grain is a good size, I didn't have to wash It much at all and it didn't kick back a ton of stuff into the water column which was good. The colour isn't jet black and there's a few pieces which definitely edge on grey but personally I like a little bit of variety across the bottom. I feel it makes it more interesting. The picture of the tank has aquasoil underneath, i used 1 2kg bag in a 45cm cube and that's roughly the thickness layer on top of the soil that I got. If I was rescaping and using it to cap aqua soil again I would definitely use 2 bags as 1 wasn't quite enough.
Review: Makes the plants stand out - Very happy with this gravel. The colour blend works really well and looks much more natural in the aquarium than a solid black would. It was easy to rinse and didn’t leave the water cloudy for long at all. Good quality product and excellent value for money.

Very happy with this gravel. The colour blend works really well and looks much more natural in the aquarium than a solid black would. It was easy to rinse and didn’t leave the water cloudy for long at all. Good quality product and excellent value for money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality gravel
*by O***E on 14 May 2026*

I love this make of gravel. This time I ordered 'Jet Black' and although it is more of a black/grey mixture it looks really natural in my tank because of this. Just a little rinsing and then into the tank, with the water clearing within hours. Would definitely order again.
