Sand in ACF Tank

[tgampper]

I don't recommend either sand or gravel unless it's large enough so they cannot ingest it. A bare bottom is easy to clean, but not very pleasing to the eye. I use river rock.

Is river rock hard to maintain as far as cleaning is concerned? And just how much larger is it than your standard gravel? I imagine food and waste would be easy to get lost in between the cracks.

I have sand in my frog tank. Waste generally stays on top of the sand and is easily removed by siphoning or netting. I agree a bare bottom tank is not aesthetically pleasing.
Sand can ruin impellers in filters.

[PineappleProducer]

what kind of filter do you use in your tank?
