are there any dangerous sands

[latazyo]

it is VERY attractive and was only 2 bucks at menards for 50# as opposed to the $1/1# the pet store wanted for "aquarium sand" this sand is way more attractive than any other sand I"ve seen

it is VERY fine and light tan, likje a desert or the ocean, it is absolutely gorgeous, if that is a good enough reason

Something to consider

Some sand has sharp particles in it. This can cut and scratch the barbels on Cories and other bottom feeders.


Sand that I have noticed that has this problem is "Toys-R-Us" Playground sand.
