When I originally brought home my axolotls, I was told that I could use sand, that it would be better than normal gravel. I ended up buying play sand from the local Home Depot and rinsed it thoroughly before putting it into the tank. The sand ended up darkening quite a bit in the water and I wasn't really pleased with the results. I decided I wanted to try out a new substrate, so here I am with the following question...
What is your favorite substrate to use and why?
Also- would river rocks from Hobby Lobby (rinsed off) still have chemicals on them that would kill the axolotls?
