What is the difference between golden sand and white sand that is sold in LFS?
Which one is better for planted tank?

Golden sand is the bigger gravel of river sand you will get eastern and southern part of Indian Rivers.

Other sand and what Greenwave has and LFS has are crushed gravel, sometime with smooth edges. This also very much ok with planted tank. Golden sand hardly available here in North India

Both are crushed gravels. Golden sand is brownish in color and while white sand is white in color.

Thanks for the replies
so..both are good to be used in a planted tank. I will probably go for the one greenwave has.
