Help.. Looking for Silica Sand on Mornington Peninsula

[pink66]

Hello all, I have hit a brick wall.. Can anyone please tell me where I can get the White Silica Sand from on the Mornington Peninsula or South East Suburbs. I have rang every pool shop, garden supply and nursery I can find and all with no luck.. that is unless I would like a nice brownie, beige sand..

thanks in advance.. I am sure someone out there will know where to track it down. :cry:

Hi Sharon.

I bought silica sand from Aquarium Addicts in Campbellfield
5 Cheviot Rd, Campellfield - 9359 0333

10kg bags for $20 ready to use as it is tripled washed so I was told.

I have it in my Discus tank as well as an African tank.
Looks great and is easy to clean.

I know its a long way for you, but no-where I know sells it.
Speak to Theo there, he may do a deal if you want a large amount and considering how far you have to travel.

Hope this helps :)

Amazing Amazon in Springvale Rd Glen Waverley near the corner of Waverley Rd (get off the Eastlink @ high st road then go back towards frankston)
Ask for 16/30 white gravel..... its what you want.
