Very clean, super colour
Incredible sand! Pure black and sparkles in the light. Super fine so my corys are loving it. Didn’t need any washing and goes a LONG way! I used 2 x 20lb bags in a 180L but would have got away with 1 and a bit

Really pretty sand
Very pretty sand and didn't need as much rinsing as I thought it would need.

Best sand ever.
This sand is so beautiful with a bright black colour and a little hint of sparkling. The tanks look amazing after redecorating and its dust free!

Beautiful natural substrate
Looks beautiful in the tank, slight sparkle. I like that it is all natural and I found it to be good value. Required a lot of rinsing, as expected with aquarium sand.

Good sand
Amazing sand great for tanks with natural plants and aqua scaping however the columns does mean it appears dirty quicker but with a clean up crew it stays well maintained.

Me gustó aunque aun no termino el Montaje, pero creo será bueno. Solo no me agrada que la envíen en un empaque distinto del que publican y me hizo dudar que fuera original. Desconozco por qué el cambio.

My fish and shrimp approve and I'm beyond happy with this substrate. The Galaxy Sand has a fantastic deep black color that makes the greens of my Java Ferns and Anubias absolutely pop. It provides a sleek, professional look that completely transformed the aesthetic of my tank. I gave it a really good rinsing before using, the water still got a little brownish colored, but it was clear the next morning.

Compared to other aquarium sands I’ve used, this one stands out for how clean it arrives and how even the grain size is. The black color is deep and looks excellent once submerged. Minimal rinsing needed and no sharp edges, which is important for fish. It was easy to shape for aquascaping and stays put once placed. For the price, this is a great value and performs better than many similar substrates.

This is great sand. When I put it in the tank I did not have murky water like I did when I put white sand in. I gave both white and black rinsing before I put it in. With the black sand however I added more once the tank was full and I still didn't have a problem. Now I have a lot of Corys that like to kick up the sand during their Cory parties, but it never affects the water clarity. Honestly I was excited to see the "Galaxy" sparkle, but the only way I see it is in my video. In real life I do not see it. My video was taken with blue light so that's why it might have shown up. Again, in real life it doesn't. It's still good sand and I'm glad I got it. Just don't expect a meteor shower in your tank and it won't be a disappointment. The price was reasonable and delivery was very fast, but then again it was Amazon so I expected that. I hope this helps some of my fellow fish keepers!
