Water-Parameter Friendly: UNS Controsand Sequoia aquarium substrate is formulated to remain inert in freshwater and planted aquariums, helping maintain stable water parameters and providing a balanced environment for aquatic life.
Earthy Mixed Pebble Gravel: With mixed pebble sizes of 6–15 mm, this earthy-colored fish tank gravel adds natural texture and depth to aquascapes, complementing driftwood, stones, and live plants.
Versatile for Aquascaping: This fish tank substrate adapts to a variety of aquascaping styles — from minimal nature setups to dense planted layouts — suitable for large aquariums, small fish tanks, and compact setups.
For Shrimp and Gentle Bottom Species: The smooth, rounded pebbles offer a comfortable surface for shrimp and bottom-dwelling fish, allowing natural movement and foraging in freshwater aquariums.
Ready to Use: Pre-washed for convenience, UNS Controsand Sequoia aquarium pebbles can be placed directly into your fish tank. A light rinse before setup removes residual dust and maintains water clarity.

    Stunning!
    This is the color “Tahoe” and it’s stunning! Don’t listen to the people who said it looks bad and isn’t worth the money. It is! Splurge! Your tank will thank you. Make sure you rinse it ALOT!

    Beautiful Natural Substrate
    Beautiful natural substrate for bioactive tank. Small enough to build terrain with but large enough to vaccum detritus from without the siphon sucking them all out. Took a while to rinse the dust off but you defintely want to do that before putting it in the tank.

    Very nice buy
    The Santa Fe substrate is beautiful & fits the natural biome I want. I think it’s perfect sz for 4 inch goldfish.

    Looks Great
    Paying this much for a bag of rocks made me feel, well, dumb as a bag of….Regardless of the price, the Vesuvius style really did a great job rounding out my “Icelandic” lava rock scape.Will definitely consider these substrates next time I’m using other types of aquascaping stones.

    Lackluster color
    Not impressed with the color at all. The wet picture shows that it is dark and vibrant but in reality it’s mostly all beige rocks

    Horrible. Impossible to have clear water.
    Besides the plastic ring, painted broken porcelain and snail shells in this bag. Rinsed rock gently but always a light brown tinge to water. Put in bowl, added water, cloudy brown water. Left 24 hours to settle, only slightly less cloudy. Added filter, only minutely cloudy but as soon as any rock moved, very cloudy. Took all rock out, WASHED with jetted water and swirling motion. Non-stop brown cloudy water. Some kind of soft rock that dissolves when agitated in the least in this mix. Would never buy again. Going to buy polished rocks, then I know I can rinse and rocks will be clean. Total waste of money. Zero Stars.
