LOOK NO FURTHER BUY IT NOW!
If youre gonna buy this definitely buy it from HERE! you go to any fish stores they see the word mug written on your forehead and rinse you out. If you got 120cm width tank upto 300 Litres tank 2 bags is more than enough. Been watching too much YouTube and been wanting the dream set up and finally got it done these look amazing and really make the colour of any fishes pop. Alot of the reviews saying they didnt have to wash them to be honest even when i did rinse them i saw no particles or dirty water being drained was clean already out the bag just your choice if you want to rinse them to be on the safe side. Enjoying that minimalistic look🤩

Very clean fine dark gray almost black sand
It's almost black .just enough in my 180 liter cube hospital tank.good price for 8 kilo.very clean tipped in bucket and just a little dust floated to the top maybe a teaspoon. Clear water though straight in tank no discolouration at all. fine sand would perches again.

Seems good but not jet black I think
Seems fine so far, was surprisingly very clean only rinsed it once and it was clear , I mixed with the Fluval stratum that I already had from previous and there is a noticeable colour difference, seems more of a grey then black against the stratum but it don’t look too bad

Great!!
Really impressed with this fine gravel! Yes it's not jet black like some customers have complained but I actually really like the dark grey colour. It looks great in the tank and when cleaning it beforehand barely any dust came out of it at all. Would highly recommend especially at this price! Same size of bag will set you back £18 in a well known pet shop chain. Added to a 50l tank and still have half a bag. Can't fault this at all.
