My Planted and Killies Tank

[stormhawk]

The sand should have been mined directly from the US location that Wright has mentioned. I don't think you'll get the same identical particles in sands mined from other places.

As it is, there's a kind of gravel called Arag-alive and its meant for marine tanks. They have a range of sands ranging from those mined in the Caribbean and also in the Pacific regions, from places such as Indonesia and even Fiji.

As it is, one can see the differences from the sands mined from these geographically different regions.

In USA there is a town name Singapore.

Kho, where'd you get this info? Very intriguing, I did a search on a website but there's no such town by that name in the states.

I did however, find a town called Singapore in Northern Province, South Africa.

We also have a Aberdeen, Adelaide, Alexandria, Amsterdam, Arlington, Belfour, Belfast, Bethlehem, Derby, Dundee, Hanover, Heidelberg, Ladysmith, Newcatsle, Orkney, Paris (well Parys actually), Sydney, Utrecht, Zoar (one of the cities near Sodom and Gomorah) and even a Senegal.

I found a "Singapore Historical" in Michigan (by the lake) so I'm not sure what that means.

There is also a Singapura in Jawa Barat, right next to some volcano (probably dormant or extinct).

The tumbling action of the river and surf means it is beautifully rounded particles that don't abrade the tender barbells of small catfish or chew away roots when we plant or move plants. Nice product.

Yes. It is very good sand and the edge I have is rounded and good for cory fish.
For the price of SGD 22.00 it is consider good and cheap.

Reflect that against the US$4 I used to pay for 22 kg.

BTW, I bet it is cheaper in SG than in Bishop.

One downer about living in glorious country is the cost of transporting stuff here, coupled with the minimal competition to drive prices down.

Perhaps, my gravel had been gone over by Wright?

Wright, you could always move to Singapore..

That might be possible indeed.

How high are your mountains in SG? How could I take my regular Tues. AM hikes with Teena? Today's was short (2.2 miles) in about 6" of fresh snow. From here, I can walk about 600 miles without ever seeing anybody and only crossing a few roads. [From SG, that would have to be a boat trip. ]

Not many people, which is OK for us rural type hicks.

I doubt if I actually walked on your gravel, but I did race sailboats a lot out of Santa Cruz, Monterey and Carmel (where Clint Eastwood was the mayor). I was no doubt very close to it in my travels.

No mountains in Singapore but that's not a problem. we are physically linked to the Asian mainland. a 600 mile hike would take you to the Thai-Malaysian border, nice place with lots of friendly folks. There used to be many more friendly folks (the MCP) but most have retired

Plus you can walk all the way to Siberia if you really want to
