Yep, agree with everything daisycutter said, and it is very expensive.
I really wanted to go for black sand in my tank, but couldn't afford it at the time

i paid quite abit for my black silt/grain (thicker than sand)
and found that the fishes colours seemed dimmer less attractive, so i ruined it by adding white silt/grain, and last week i had to put some white coral gravel in (to help with PH).
but i prefer the lighter gravel as the fishes colours show up soo much more
