Tomorrow I'll be puttin eco complete in my tank. My question is should I be capping it with so,etching besides black sand? I don't want to to be to sharp for any fish.
Capping eco complete
- Thread starter Smithmode
- Start date
What kind of fish do you have?
I don't see a reason to cap the Eco. The one I have doesnt have any sharp edges that would/could be harmful. In my 110g planted SA cichlid tank I have black sand and eco complete as a substrate. Eventually the sand will sink below the Eco complete. There's a group of geos in this tank that sift constantly. Hope this helps.

Please forget the cloudiness of the water I changed to my eco complete about an hour and a half ago. Decided to add the fish back sooner then I wanted because I lost my female angel no I have officially lost my pair i will ill take another picture when it clears up! I'll probably pic up more plants tomorrow and my LFS owes my a few free ones so I'll get those Tuesday
Did you wash the Eco Complete at all? I know some say you shouldn't but I found that if adding eco complete to an established tank you should.
Maybe do a water change if the tank isn't clear tomorrow.

Yeah I didn't wash it. And the tank is clear this morning but I still plan on doing a water change, about 25% just because.
