Default substates

I use flourite and find that it is great but you have to wash it GOOD.
Also, eco-complete is great too and does not cloud water from what I
hear. You can find both on the internet, and after shipping, it is
still alot cheaper than you could get at Petsmart. Here is where I
brought mine from:

Hope this helps and good luck with plants.

Cute name...

Flourite, hands down... best stuff I've ever used, IMO...

should be able to get it at any PetSmart, but it'll be pricey.... My
suggestion is to mix it with similarly sized and colored gravel, same look,
cheaper by the bag... Flourite is usually $30 a 14lb bag here, but gravel is
$9 for 25lbs.... that's why I mix it...
