The goldfish and loach belong in different tanks. Myself I would not use sand.

Hi Everyone,
I am setting up a tank in the near future and trying to decide on a substrate,
of course the most practical is bare borrom, But i have a weather loach who just
loves rumaging around at the bottom of the tank. I have biggish medium natural
gravel at present and i dont think he likes it much.
Although i do have goldfish in with him. They all get on fine. Im thinking of
sand, but have come across many varying views. Just wondered if there are any
real problems with sand for goldfish and a loach. I have heard about the gases,
and it needs stirring once a montth or more, under half inch thick and possible
impaction of eating it. If i go for sand will keeping it under half inch stop
the gas build up or is it still possible even with stirring and being under half
inch.
Any advice much appreciated.
Thanks
