so I took the plunge of changing my substrate after 8 years of having Flourite. I loved my results with it I just felt the sand was going to be better for the discus and the fish I am going to add. (sterbai, tetras, rcs and assassin snails)
I decided I would switch to pool filter sand to lighten up my Discus. I left the background dark to show off the plants and the sand seems to have helped make the colors of the fish pop. So far I like how it looks, just need to see how the plants fill in. Here are some pics, before and after.
