The beds my BG are currently using are 12 to 18 inches deep. Size doesn’t seem as important, as there are a couple new beds in my swim beach. It is very fine material, sub 1/8 inch. The deeper bed I built isn’t seeing any activity, but despite me trying to clean it off, it has a lot of weeds and FA on and around it now.

Pea gravel is really hard to find and can be very expensive in this part of the world. I’ll see what I can come up with. Road base, which is crushed rock with fines, I can get for free, which is why I used it.
