Review: Love this stuff!!! - This product is bigger than sand, but, smaller than gravel. It has a lovely natual color, but doesn't look exactly like the picture. Personally, I think the rock is prettier than the picture. One bag was enough to cover my 5.5 gallon aquarium and plant my live plants, but, there definitely isn't any extra. I had no problem cleaning the gravel. I dumped it all in a large bowl and ran water in the bowl. The gravel was heavy enough to stay in the bottom of the bowl with a slow stream of water. I ran my hands thru the gravel, occasionally dumping the discolored water out and putting fresh in. It took about 5 minutes. The company also includes a packet of water clearing solution that I used although I think I could have gotten away with not using it. The gravel stays put in the aquarium and is not sucked up or displaced by my water filter or bubbler.
Review: Fine gravel, not sand - I was reluctant to purchase this sight unseen because the company calls it "sand", while the photos appeared to be a coarser grain. So I took a gamble that it was like the photos, and I was not disappointed. It is a clean, fine gravel, which is what I was looking for to add to my regular aquarium gravel for a more natural look, and give plants in areas of the tank a nicer substrate to root into. I didn't use the included water clearing solution, I just rinsed the gravel with running water 4 or 5 times until it ran clear. I added it to my tank without any cloudiness.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful and Clean
*by M***N on July 30, 2019*

The sand is a beautiful natural color. It’s speckled with different colored large sand grains. Some clear quarts, some red, brown, etc. In person the sand is lighter than in the product photo but it’s still a warm yellowy color overall. It comes with the little cleaner chemical to help with dust but it wasn’t very dusty all. The 5lb bag was just the perfect amount to go in my 5gallon tank. The price is a little expensive but it’s definitely a good product for the price.
