General Care Discussion :: Will this work as substrate?

I've found only 1 for $400, includes a Marineland 350 double biowheel filter and Emperor 280 single biowheel filter and heater. Dual air pump with hoses, valves, and bubbler. Also include many decorative accessories, chemicals, and cleaning materials. Sits on solid oak stand with three cabinets. Will also include books and manuals.

Here's a link. I want it really bad, but I know my parents wouldn't pay for it. It would take 3-4 years to pay my parents back.

I found some sand on Fosterandsmith.com, and this sand I found says it's can be used for softshell turtles, so I figured it would work. Do you'll think it will work

it might but im not real sure how it would do underwater. i just called a local aquarium store and they said they carried sand.

That should be fine. Key words were "additive free".

[PcBuilder14]

ok kool.

I will probably still buy the sand from petsmart, pretty much the only pet store near me! If I got to the actual small pet stores, everything there is way overpriced.
