Ok, i'm presently thinking about changing my stinky substrat to ADA amazonia 2.

My tank is 720 litres, and is 2000 x 600 x 600 mm. How many bags 9L bags would i need, and would it be advisable to get ADA powersand (is that the one?).
 
and dont forget your powersand. you'll need 18L of that give or take :D maybe a bit less but not much.allways comes in handy anyway.
 
Helloooooo,

The ADA catalogue recommends for a 150x60x60:

9x9l Aquasoil
1x18l Powersand

However i am in the process of setting up a 240x60x60 and have used 10x 9l Aquasoil, 1x18l powersand that is placed over 50kg of unipac silica sand.

I wanted some height for scaping, however this is plenty with the sand. i have 2" in the front rising to 8" in places in the back, bearing in mind i have used root and stone aswell for decor.

Depends on your planned scape, if its pretty flat then maybe 8 bags.
