what is the cheapist gravel??

[turtlesrock]

ok guys i dont have any money... and i still need gravel for my 6 foot tank...i need a good layer of about 2.5 inches because when my turtles try to dig it up i dont want to see the bottom of the tank... so either post a link of some really cheap gravel or just tell me what to get...NOTE: gravel hs to be bigger than a pea size...

paint the OUTSIDE bottom black. i just roll on the cheapest acrylic i find. rolling is easier IMO because you can do it indoors and without emptying the tank.

so just paint the bottom?? i would do it but i want a very natural look.

i paint all mine. i like the look better than gravel and the filters trap all the debris. but i guess it's definitely not "natural" looking.
