## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size pieces is the jet black In mm please**
A: Small pieces. About 2mm generally. Frozen pea size maximum but mostly smaller.

**Q: Would this substrate be suitable for corydoras?**
A: Corydoras will be OK in a gravel surface although they prefer something softer like sand in their natural environment. There is nothing here to catch delicate gills, it's all rounded off nicely. Give them somewhere to hide like a leafy plant to keep them happy.

**Q: How many bags would I need for a 35L tank, it's 50cm x 25cm?**
A: I used half of a bag for a 10 litre tank so I would use 3 and a half depending on what thickness you would want at the bottom of the tank

**Q: I notice buyers have received different sizes. I would like particle size of 1-2mm,   How do order to ensure the correct grade is delivered?**
A: It does normally say on the additional information part
