Amazon has 15.4 lbs Seachem Flourite Black Aquarium Sand on sale for $21.32. Shipping is free w/ Prime or on $25+ orders.

Thanks to Community Member Phantom240 for posting this deal.

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.
Good Deal?

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

Something seriously wrong with youMad
I'm just happy to see aquatic items here on SD. More more more, Thumbs up if you agree !!
Dealing with the same issue, I had 6 "marimo balls" in there and each month I pulled out about a quart sized ball.
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.

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.

The guy at my LFS has a technique with 2 nets and a flick of his fingers. Took him less than a minute. But I can't do it. My hillstrwam loaches are staying put. At another LFS you have to catch your own fish and a couple tried for a half an hour to catch one until they finally were able to. I told them it might be easier with 2 nets. And that tank only had a sponge filter in it. I have a tough enough time with catching celestial pearl danios. I succeed only after unintentionally rescaping half the tank.

I wouldn't buy any fish that took 30 minutes to catch. That fish is going to be so stressed out I doubt it makes it a week in the new tank Frown
Going to have to look up this technique

Yeah guppies are the way to go in that sense. I put my hand in the tank and they jump right in.

I dunno where my LFS gets their guppies, but whenever I try, I end up losing them all within two weeks... yet I have significantly more delicate species thriving in other tanks with the same water parameters.
