Hello all,
I’m looking to redo the aqua scape in my tank and want to create a slope up one end. Seachem Flourite Black Sand is very expensive and I’d need a few bags to create this effect. I thought I’d use aquatic compost underneath but there’s a shortage. I saw that some people have used John Innes No. 3 as a substrate, but would this be compatible with a deep layer of Seachem Flourite black sand over the top? Or should I put something else underneath the Flourite to create a slope?
