JBL Sansibar DARK 5 kg, Dark substrate for freshwater and saltwater aquariums

This sand is beautiful It has a nice fine finish, looks great in the tank, not super white which is nice as it looks more natural. It's very effective with the other decore and super low dust, excellent value as 1 bag was enough for a 45l aquarium

This is a very fine sand as long as you’re aware of that it is fantastic really stands out in the aquarium Corys love it always burying their noses in the sand. I have an 85 L tank and used approximately 1 1/2 bags of this to give enough for planting the plants. Love it too rooting really well I’m having to trim them weekly to prevent them overgrowing the tank.

I use this in all my tanks. It is very fine, high quality, but also smooth edged - so, corydoras friendly.

My second fish tank set up. This was for prawns and loaches. Obeyed the instructions and washed it thoroughly ( about 8 times), could not get it to clear, put it in the tank, filled with water, very cloudy. Eventually my carbon filtered pump cleared the water with the addition of a water treatment, now it looks fine.

Excellent sand

So I had a problem with my tank that was causing my fish to die...so i took the decision to completely empty my tank. I opted for the sand gravel as i read its great for shrimp and bottom feeders. The sand gravel is really hard to clean. It took me 36 buckets to rinse it. My tank was a milky colour for 10 days, but it was a complete tank change, so it was to be expected. As hard as it is to rinse, I would do it all over again as it looks great! The food sits on the top too, so i can see the tank keeping clean for longer. I have a 110 litre tank and 10kg gave me about 2inches on the bottom.

What I liked about this product is that it is ready to use, it looks great inside my new aquarium. Unfortunately one of the plastic bags has a hole in it do some sand was lost, but no much so all is well. It may be worth thinking about using thicker and stringer plastic bags to prevent this from happening in the future, just my suggestion guys. I purchased four x 5 kg bags which was the right Amount of substrate for my aquarium. It’s looking good. Many thanks.

After 10 or so buckets of rinsing the water was still murky but I Added to the tank anyway. Water horrible. 5 100% water changes later it looks nice. Unfortunately that's the only good thing about this product. It's not sand, but basically dust. The particles are so small they stay in the water column and get easily inducted Into the filter quickly clogging it. Basically even the slightest disturbance and there's a thousand tiny bits floating around for a good 5mins. Not quite happy with the behaviour I ​spent a few hours researching it and found anecdotal evidence of it killing Cory's. Decided to empty the tank and get something more friendly to life. Whilst emptying I managed to take a mouthful of this awful stuff, it's way worse than sand. The bits get absolutely everywhere despite careful effort, and I'm still finding it in the house days later. Dont let this stuff into your house, its impossible to get rid of.
