Does anyone know an easy way to work out how much sand in kg or pounds you will need to give a bed about 4" deep in a 48" long by 15" wide tank.

It works out to 2880 cubic inches if that helps any.

Thanks.

this should help. There are lots of good calculators on the home page on the left bar.

Thanks very much, this site is huge. I am still trying to find my way about.:D

I also have it set to go straight to the forums which is probably why I missed the calculators section:o
