Bacti-Twist comes in black or white and is currently available in three sizes: 2 lbs., 4 lbs., and 8 lbs.

Note:

The 2 lb. bag consists of ~125 sq. ft. of surface area and fits well into a 15-20 gallon container.
The 4 lb. bag consists of ~250 sq. ft. of surface area and fits well into a 30-40 gallon container.
The 8 lb. bag consists of ~500 sq. ft. of surface area and fits well into a 60-80 gallon container

Hey PS3. just so you know that e-ponds website is selling bacti-twist for 11.99 but its only 1/2 cubic foot. most places sell 2 cubic feet at a time so thats a lot more expensive if you buy it at that place
