hey guys, im thinking of getting some Caribsea Eco-Complete
http://www.aquaessentials.co.uk/index.p ... cts_id=190
purely cos I like the look. I dont know much about substrates - but, to bulk it up, can I use topsoil from B&Q?, with the eco-complete on top? Also will topsoil sink? - and can I just use soil from my garden? (my garden is very clay, my dads is more silty - nearer the river. Which would be best, and would I need to treat/test tehm or just chuck it in!?)
Thanks
