Is there any thing with gravel from lowes?

i suppose you say that you will wash it really well, but iwouldn't use it if i where you. It could be carrying harmful germs and stuff thst water can't kill. But, hey, its your choice!
 
I use some types...soak/wash in bleach...lots of rinses with dechlor...no problems.
 
I used it in my 150, I just washed and rinsed it very well. I have not had a single problem with it. Although personally I prefer the playground sand from Lowes.
