Nourhan Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Hello! I currently have betta and khuli loaches (in quarantine before introducing to betta). My plan was to purchase "topfin fine gravel" it is very sand like. Unfortunately lots of customers at LFS said the product reeked of a chemical smell and of nail polish! So now I'm back to square one, I will be returning this product, it's a good thing I delayed my substrate change and didn't use the sand! My question is what brand of sand do you guys use thats safe for bettas/loaches. Thank you 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tihshho Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Your best bet for quality and price is pool filter sand. You should be able to find it at a local hardware store or pool/sauna/hot tub vendor if not online. Very nice sand that is low dust and requires no pre rinsing.

Nourhan Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 Okay thank you! Do I have to look for any specific details or chemicals listed in purchasing pool filter sand? Or do I just Google pool filter sand and any brand will suffice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
