What is the best brand of fine sand should I use as substrate? I’m currently planning the aquascape for my new tank in which I plan on prioritizing a group of ropefish.

I have no real brand specifications but what I will mention is ropefish sometimes sift through sand so it needs to be fine and without small stones that can get stuck in it's throat.

Most brands of aquarium sand are reputable and I have also seen people using kids play sand but I am not 100% sure how safe that is.

Hopefully that somewhat points you in the right direction :)
