I love this sand! Upon getting it I followed the instructions on the bag for washing it then drained my tank till there were only 2inchs of water left. I put the sand in then drained a little bit more water before filling it. When it was filled I added the clearifier packet and within a few hours it was cleared up. My axolotl loves it.

The sand was so fine, the tank kept getting cloudy when the filter was on. Ended up changing the water 4 times before discarding the sand and getting something else.
