ya my sucker fish did that too. you can really see his sh*t huh, but piranhas have lighter sh*t color... so its up too you ... i got ride of my sucker fish aready. I want black sand though so my fish can stand out more. let me know where you get yours.. thanks
I'd say before you go spending $100 on new sand for your tank:
a) Siphon more often if you can see their sh*t.
b) Take out the pleco if the only sh*t you can see is his.
i have gotten all my black sand either on the net here http://www.aquariumpros.com and the other black sand that i have is from the lfs. i really dont think that u will be able to get it for that cheap. i also think u dont realize that the black sand shows alot more dirt then he white sand does. i like this thouhg, it is easier to clean up after. i have black sand in all but one of my tanks.
yea, for sure i followed the pinned sand thread for washing and it seems to be working out... it was not even cloudy....and tons cheaper...they also have play sand which is more of a natural rock color and not as fine...i will be getting more this weekend...............
