Gravel Advice

[Bojangles]

Currently got sand in my tank but i really dont like it if im honest so was looking to go back to gravel

So my question is whats the best type for my bronze catfish?

if u was 2 go back 2 gravel i would probably use the finest grade pea gravel you can get hold of

The best answer for a cory is to examine the gravel that you are considering and make sure that it doesn't have any sharp edges. If there are no pointy corners and everything is rounded, the cories will be fine. Avoid things like beach sand or crushed shells that will drive your pH too high.

I have Eco-Complete and recently I have noticed that the black seems to have been "worn off" around the mouth of my Cory Pandas....

hi Bojangles
i prefair graval aswell as for one
all the left overs go under it not like sand were it stays on the surface sand does look better but .
i did try sand but prefair graval i got mine from pets@home but its finer than pea graval and allot more exspencive and wanted a certain colour but from a diy outlet you could get pea graval for next to nowt.
pluss the fact you dont have to do any thing to graval to let the gas build up out like sand it seems allot better for me

I took the sand out of my tank in the end

Just didnt look right for some reason got some clay colour gravel and looks alot better no sharp bits in there either so the corys should like it
