I hope you're reading this, because it means you visit websites after a complete stranger writes the link for you on a piece of scrap paper while waiting in line.
Which is funny in itself, but I digress.
Good move - this is a fun place to be. Let us help you buy fish for your 55g tank. By 'help', I mean with information, not with money.
Oh, and return some of that gravel - you can use as much or as little as you want, 1 pound per gallon is a way to get you to buy more of it. And it traps a lot of fish poo down in there.

Remember, next time you gotta buy something, go to the petsmart website and print out the online price. . .

:lol:

yeah..we're here to help :)
 
umm yeah, tell us how you feel!
 
okay
 
So, what exactly is this about :silly:

By the way, I think I need a teeny tiny bit more than 1 pound per gallon if 45+ pounds of gravel in my 30g is only about 2" deep (poor plants...). I'm aiming for 3-4 inches of sand in the 75g. How many pounds would that be? :D
 
well now this is like a soap opera..... im seriously wondering if this guy will not only join the site, but find this thread :D

150-200lbs. i used 150 in my 72 gallon bowfront, its bout 2.5 inches.
 
usually if you are buying play sand, (at least in lowe's or home depot) there is a weight/mass chart either on the bags or on the shelves with the price tags that tells you how much you need to get a depth of x inches based on square footage. i used about 30-35 pounds of it in my 55g and it's 1-2 inches deep.
