Usage

• Pre-washed and ready to use, though additional rinsing can be done to ensure cleanliness

• Use on its own for a natural base, or combine with other WIO sands and gravels for a custom substrate look
• Arrange rocks, driftwood, and plants to create a harmonious and captivating environment
• When filling the tank, pour water carefully avoiding direct flow onto the sand — Pro Tip: pour over a plate or décor to minimize disturbance
