Im having a new tank and I plan to decorate it with fine sand that is color white and good for lungfish digging. How much lbs should I buy for a 200 gallon tank? What kind of sand should I use that will match with a black background?

Between 100 to 200 lbs. should work great depending on if you want to let the lungfish dig a little or a lot. I'd go with black sand for matching or maybe white sand for some contrast.

What kind of lungfish is this for anyway?
