Dennerle Natural Gravel Okavango 8-12mm

Finally found a gravel that stays put even with my filter current, the 8-12mm pieces are heavy enough not to get sucked up. It gave my aquascape that natural riverbed look I was after, and the color actually looks better wet than dry.

I was worried the 8-12mm size might be too chunky for my small tank, but it actually creates a really neat, natural-looking slope that stays put. The gravel is surprisingly clean out of the bag, barely any dust.

The cream and tan color of these stones is much more natural-looking than the usual aquarium gravel, and the 8-12mm size adds great texture without being too chunky. I used them to create a winding path in my tank and the effect is exactly what I imagined.
