I have a 30 Long Chinese Fire belly tank. My substrate is various sized gravel from 1/4 inch diameter up to an inch in diameter. All this rests on under gravel filter plates.
I was thinking about adding sand to the setup. Can I use sand over gravel with an under gravel filter and if so, what kind of sand do I use? will play sand work? do I need to worry about filter pumps etc? Right not the under gravel filter uses air stones but I do have a submersible pump for a water feature.
Thanks in advance.
