I use all gravel and love it, but I'm clearly in the minority on this board.

I find that gravel is easier to keep clean and that it's easier to move
plants around without making a mess. A lot of heavy root feeders like
swords, particularly the red ones, and many crypts, will do better in a
finer substrate.

kush, waiting for Leigh to rebut
