Grain Size

0.4 - 0.8 mm
Smooth grains — gentle on fish, sharp on looks.

Looks natural. Feels natural. Is natural.

Sustainably sourced and eco-friendly.

Create depth, drama, and visual balance in your tank with PureAquarium Natural Sand – Midnight Black. Crafted from natural, inert materials, this fine-grained substrate (0.4–0.8 mm) is ideal for aquarists who want a stable, low-maintenance base that enhances both clarity and contrast.

Its deep black tone gives your aquarium a clean, modern look while making plant greens and fish colours stand out beautifully. Being completely inert, it won’t alter your water chemistry — meaning your parameters stay stable for healthy, consistent conditions.

Although pre-washed, we recommend a quick rinse before use to remove any fine dust and achieve crystal-clear water from the start.

Why you’ll love it:

  1. Natural and inert – safe for all freshwater aquariums
  2. Fine grain (0.4–0.8 mm) perfect for plant roots and bottom-dwellers
  3. Deep black colour enhances visual contrast and aquascape design
  4. Pre-washed for convenience – just rinse before adding
  5. Available in 2 kg or 5 kg bags for any aquarium size

Whether you’re building a lush planted layout or a minimalist hardscape, this sand provides the perfect foundation for both function and form.
