    Go to your nearest beach. You'll get gravel and washed up drift wood. Give them a good wash before adding to the tank.

    Don't do this, it's illegal to take sand / gravel from beaches.

    A fiver should get you a big band of buildiing sand from garden centre / B&Q / builders providers etc, petstop sell bags of river sand for about the same too
