Hello,

I considering re-doing my planted tank.. This time, I want to use TRUE
planted tank substrate.. I really like the look of a "sand-ish" substrate,
but also want something that's going to reduce the amount of fertilizers I
need to add on a regular basis.

I'm really starting to wonder if all these fancy gravels are ore
of a fashio statement than actually usefull. I mean I've used
fine beach sand for years which any manner of idiots tell me
will not work and can never work.

Yeah, ok, then explain this:
