Ok post another shot... Been too long. Oh and yours isn't 3 feet tall right... I am trying to decide if I should stay with my gravel which I can clean or switch to sand. (IT would look nicer but well I don't think I could reach it to clean at all. IE no control while with gravel you just need to mix so a long gravel vac is ok.)

I have sand in a 180 Malawi tank. It is fun to watch the fish pick it up and spit it.

Downsides: takes forever to do the initial washing, it might get in your filtration (never been a problem for me), it makes a mess when you have to move rocks around.. I had a sandstorm during a cleaning when I removed all rocks and lost a few fish.. Harder to vacuum (but not that hard)

The biggest downside.. you need to keep it constantly stirred to avoid it going anearobic. That's the deal breaker for me. Gravel is much more low maintenance. I plan to switch it out at some point.
