Features:
- Flourite Black Sand is a specially fracted stable porous clay gravel for the natural planted aquarium.
- Its appearance is best suited to planted aquaria, but may be used in any freshwater aquarium environment.
- Most effective when used alone as an integral substrate bed, but it may be mixed with other gravels. Gravel modifiers such as laterite are not necessary.
- Flourite Black Sand is not chemically coated or treated and will not alter the pH of the water.
- Flourite Black Sand is good for the life of the aquarium and need not be replaced.
- Although it is pre-washed, because Flourite Black Sand is a natural product, it may become dusty in transit and require rinsing before use to remove any residual dust.

Amazon has a limited time deal on Flourite Black Sand. Unusual to see it marked down. A few bucks cheaper than even LiveAquaria

I'm convinced they're selling fake marimos online that's why they create tons of hair algae in your tank. I kept them for so long because my corydoras and shrimp love them. But I have recently gotten rid of all of them now.

Additionally the chips in the non sand substrate allow for oxygen and gasses to be exchanged which prevents anaerobic decomp from occurring in your substrate that could bring diatoms or worse, dead fish.
Any aquarium product you buy should be tailored to your lifestyle and the design of the tank.
I hate gravel vacuuming and any care in general so I buy the larger fluorite substrate, have tons(thousands) of Malaysian trumpet snails, and a heavily planted tank.
I'm also running tons of air into the tank and the water is circulated completely every minute or so via chemical and biological filtration. I do not use any mechanical filtration outside of prefilters and sponge filters which are more biological than mechanical imo. Gotta keep the snails from killing my canister filter.
I do water changes once a month and clean the filter every 90 days. Other than that they only get food. If one of the fish die the snails will remove it in under a day anyway.
Thanks for the info. Do you have a link to the fluorite substrate mentioned?

That's what I said in an earlier post. Spending an hour or two to properly wash aquarium gravel is the LEAST of my worries when setting up a tank. Tank maintenance is in the hundreds if not thousands of hours depending on how many tanks and the scale.
At least the people I know aren't happy with just ONE tank, they have like 10 on racks in their garage and then one or more inside. Some have dedicated rooms in their house just for fish tanks 😂
So it falls on deaf ears when people complain about such a trivial task. Just wait until they're doing something that really sucks like manually scraping algae off plants, Or manual removal of snails,Isolating and treating sick fish.
Keeping fish is tedious work. 🤷 ♂️
I assure you no food every makes it to the cracks and crevices of my tank. 🤣 If you haven't read about them before- Malaysian trumpet snails. They are ravenous scavengers that burrow through your gravel. For every one you see there are 20 you can't see in your tank.
Makes tank maintenance effortless because they are the second rung from the bottom of the food chain that most tanks lack.

Or try to catch a hillstream loach in a landscaped tank.

That's a trick because hillstream loaches can't be caught in a planted tank. It's more impossible than catching ottos. You have to take all the plants and fixtures out. Catch every other fish then you can focus on the zig zagging impossible to catch fish.
Sometimes you may get lucky and be able to take them out while they're attached to something. Ottos like hiding inside the space between amazon sword leaves so if you remove the whole sword mission accomplished.
