Anyone know where I can get black sand in bulk?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
tractor supply sells 50lb bags of black diamond blasting sand. about $8 a bag.

And this is fish safe? I also am looking to fill in my new 60g with black sand. Also important to me is that it wont damage my baby fire eel. This 60 is his growout tank so he will be in here for a while.

I use this in my gourami/cory tank and it's been fine for over a year. Its pretty fine, so it will compact pretty easily. Will need to sift through it once a week or so.
 
That's what I was looking for. I read that's fish safe..right...?

I personally wouldn't use it for rays or eels that burrow grains seem pretty rough and ive heard that mite be bad for them.....note I have no experience with either group of fish
But I have it in all my tanks and have for a months no problems.
