Cook for 20 minutes at 200c

I have mentioned before about my 5,000lt fish tank. I am actively collecting the stones i want and for where the plants go i need what is called a substrate or compost. This compost will go under the sand.

I asked a question on one of the Expat Forums i am on and today i got a reply about where to get the compost from.  If the answer is correct then i then have to cook the compost for 20 minutes at 200c to kill all bugs, eggs or anything that may do my tank harm.

Cooking at 200c is from advice from within the Fishkeeping community. The only thing i am now waiting for is another tube of a special silicon sealer for the glass window at the front of the tank.
