Before we say if you can or can not use it, we need to know what kind of sand it is. Home Depot sells several types of sand that are safe for use in an aquarium. See if there is a lable on the package. In any event, whatever sand or gravel you decide to use, rinse it well before putting it in your fishtank. And research here if it is ok to use first. Let us know the name/type of sand and we can better help you!
