Is it the same as play sand? I've used play sand in a tank before and it was great! But they didn't have anymore at wal mart just paver sand and the worker didn't know if it was the same and neither do I. I guess sand is sand but like I said I'm not sure and I don't like putting things I'm not sure about in my tanks.
 
You need to be more specific on the brand of paver sand you are considering buying. Some paver sand is polymeric and is used to lock the pavers in place. When water is added, it becomes hard, similar to cement. You don't want to use this type in your aquarium.
 
Awesome info id be screwed if it was the wrong one! Webout to pull up to walmart for groceries so ill post in a bit.
