how much sand will need to get a good layer in a 60*18*18

 

[Dr. Giggles]

3 20 pound bags. (60 pounds)

i do 1lbs per gallon.

 

[Dr. Giggles]

60 x 18 x 18 = 84 gallons US and 70 gallons UK. Unless you are running a wet dry only i think 80+ pounds of sand is too much imo. Will affect your power filters/powerheads when p's freak out and stir it up.

why. i have sand and love it. easy to matince cause stuff stays on top of it and dosen't sink in (for the most part) looks great imo, and some specis of fish prefer it to gravel.

I have both sand and gravel tanks and i like the gravel ones much more.
