Check out Big Al's online, at http://www.bigalsonline.com.

Here is the citation from their website (Sorry I could not provide a URL,
Big Al's web site is sort of strange that way. You can bring this citation
up by searching for Flourite at Big Al's web site, or by entering the
product number below.)

Flourite RedT is a specially fracted stable porous clay gravel for the
natural planted aquarium. Its appearance is best suited to planted aquaria,
but may be used in any aquarium environment. Flourite RedT is most effective
when used alone as an integral substrate bed, but it may be mixed with other
gravels. Gravel modifiers such as laterite are not necessary. Flourite RedT
is not chemically coated or treated and will not alter the pH of the water.
Although pre-washed, it should be rinsed before use to remove residual dust.
Dust can also be minimized by filling tank slowly and dispersing water so
that the Flourite RedT bed is not disturbed. Slight initial cloudiness is
normal and will clear rapidly (2-12 hours). This bag is sufficient for about
a 5 cm (2 inch) deep bed in a typical 40 L (10 gallon) tank. Recommended use
is 1 kg (2 lbs) for approximately each 200 cm2 (31 in2) of tank bottom at a
depth of 5 cm (2 in)..

Big Al's is a place I like to shop. I also like Drs Foster and Smith: here
is their web address: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/. Typically, I find Big
Al's has slightly better pricing, though the web site and shopping at Drs
Foster and Smith is IMO easier to use. You should check around, since
shipping could make a big difference in the final price, and it may come
down to who is nearest your location.
