Does anyone know what substrate was used here? The designer, Jeffrey Senske, never identified it in the two-part article he wrote about the design. He merely says:

After assessing several contenders, I settled on a product I had used often in the past for its sand-like texture and grain that also happened to be large enough to vacuum. Coupled with its bright, clean look and consistent coloration, the substrate issue seemed solved.

I guess he wanted to keep it a trade secret, but does anyone know what he might have used?

Thanks!
 
Pretty sure that’s sand or crushed coral skeletons which is more or less sand. Both are easy to vacuum
