What is the best substrate to cap my dirted tank? I am thinking black diamond sand.

Is this your first tank/layout bro?

I would have to saw Pool Filter Sand is by far my favorite cap. Black Diamond Blasting Grit should work out as well. Don't know from experience, but I'm setting up a tank with Black Diamond Blasting Grit and I've only heard great things about it. Just make sure to rinse it out before putting it in the tank
