I bought a bag at Home depot for $2.49 about a month ago to add to my 55g. I rinsed it 3 times before I thought it was clean enough to go in the tank. But considering it was about 40 pounds for less than $3, I'm really happy with it.
Unless you're going for a specific color, I'd say it's the only way to go for a natural look.
