You know they’re going to poop all over that sand & dig etc right? I tried sand but it showed every piece of snail, fish & shrimp poop + it grows diatom algae really well & every critter moved it around… plus my plants didn’t do well in it. I’ll stick with natural river pebbles. Better for the critters & doesn’t show off all their poop & detritus lol I don’t want my tank to be my art project- just a nice home for my critters
@@chasedriver1720 very true- my husband loves the look of sand. So he used it & his tank has brown algae all over it but he’s only got anubias & java fern in his. I do like how it looks I just couldn’t get anything to grow in it & it gets dirty so quickly… I need to get him a nerite snail- for some reason the bladder & trumpet snails aren’t cleaning up any of his diatom algae… I finally took the magnetic glass cleaner out of my tank & used it on his lol much better now

It will never look perfect forever that’s for sure, but it’s nice to see it change and become their home. Everyone likes something different.

How does this video have 8000 likes on 400 views?
When I look at it there is only 9 likes. 8000 would be nice though, maybe one day. Have a good day
@@chasedriver1720 cool, I thought maybe it had been listed as private for awhile or something. No big deal, just curious. 🙂👍
