BLACK 3M ColorQuartz sand for almost all Cichlids.

But not for Flowerhorns. This is what happened when I tried black sand with my Flowerhorn when he was a baby :eek:

theres no option for purple?!
 
i got white sand and it takes a lot of time vacuuming to make it look really clean.

what is the best method to clean sand? =[
 
how bout a 3 to 1 ratio 3 being natural sand mixed with some natural pea gravel?

won't the pea gravel sink under the sand eventually at some point?


as for the other colour suggestions I was wanting something at least naturally occuring. Maybe one day I'll have other tanks to mix up some wicked colour combos into lol
