The sand needs a rinse, but you can lay it immediately if you want. It’s not that sharp, it hasn’t got edges, so it is good for bottom dwellers like corydoras and loaches.
The color isn’t black, its more of a very dark grey. I liked a lot, very satisfying!

Not totally black, a bit more to dark gray. Very much similar to JBL Sansibar Dark sand.

It gives an awesome and new look to aquarium. Just needed to wash it before use and I washed this inside my old pillow cover for about 4-5 mins.
Now I find my fishes enjoying sifting and scavenging through this a lot more than through gravel which I had previously.
