My sand is from B and Q cost under £5 for a big bag, I used about 1/3 for this tank. It is a better colour than argos (yellowy).... took about 40 mins of washing though, left to steap over night then got about 3 more rinses, but it isnt even cloudy once put in the new tank it paid off!

Love the filter, its so cool.

The filter is noisy and huge haha!

Sorry I have threw the bag away and put the spare in a tub.... there is some on there website: www.diy.com/nav/garden/garden-care-watering/mulches-sand-bark/sand/Blooma-Play-Sand-11907579

But mine was the older bag I think they have updated it, im sure it will be just as good... mine was kept outside near other building things if that helps. Mine was 4.48 I think. It looks darker in the bag, goes lighter in tank Sorry couldnt be of more help!
