## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this sand white and black or tan and black?  I'm looking for the white and black mix. Thanks**
A: This one is a mix of white and black, looks great!

**Q: Is this actually sand? I’ve ordered this brand labeled as sand and it came as gravel.**
A: I got the wrong product all together. Instead of sending me sand they sent me a light that was meant for a reptile cage. Which just happened to have to label for the sand on it

**Q: Is this sand pH neutral?**
A: I don't believe so I use it to raise my ph

**Q: How many bags would  I need for a 55 gallon tank**
A: It's about 1-2 lbs of sand per gallon. So if you are buying the 20 lb bag, 3 bags should do fine.
