    i bought this 25 kg bag of black gravel from the namibia trader at the aquarama. was wondering if i can use that as for the rock scape and also will plants like HC and maybe har grass root well to them?

    Perhaps you can post some pics of the black gravel and more details of the set-up, HC is quite demanding and needs high lights and CO2.
    ...I love rubies too ...

    Do you know if the black gravel is inert? It may alter water chemistry. Best to do a test before you use it.

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    Inert means it won't tweak your water parameters like pH.

    Because black gravel mostly are chemically treated. dyed. so has potential to flux your water chemistry
