wats gd abt this gravel is coz its cheap, inert, smooth(no sharp edges), easily available in most LFS... thats all i can think of for now..

disadvantage: too reflective. not suitable for pleco tank as its too glaring for them. hard to take pics. will turn out like the 1 i posted unless i use lesser lightning or go adjust the cam settings which i dunno how to..

anyway the above are just my personal opinion.
