hi guys
i have just received my order from aquaristic and I didnt buy enough flourite black sand
(kinda knew in my heart of hearts but the package was getting too heavy)
i was going to have the flourite under a dorset pea gravel top
what can i do?
Could i mix the flourite sand with say 30% regular sand to bulk it up
would it still have enough nutrients?
other option would be to get a bucket of the tetra soil in the local lfs
and put this under the flourite layer, but i dont know if this mix
of two different products would work okay or would they react or anything like that
any advice welcome,
i hope to set this tank up asap as my plants have arrived after a week of travel
and i want to get them into the tank
Regards and thanks
