cichlid7 Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 calcite or silica sand would be best (i think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smidey Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 what type of cichlid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afrikan Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Yeah definately as smidey asks... what sort of cichlid :lol: If you are referring to Africans... we used marble chip and coral sand in other tanks. You wouldn't want to use these 2 substrates with anything non African. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
