Calci-sand as substrate?

Ok, so I ended up getting a couple of 'white' froglets from Grow-a-frog, which are now sharing one of the cubicles they can in.

I want to transfer them to a larger aquarium, but I was wondering what kind of sand would be safe to use as a substrate. I know I could order a bag from grow-a-frog, but I was hoping to avoid expensive shipping costs.

My question is, would calci-sand or similiar product be ok for ACF's? Would the colors dye the water? Anyone have issues of impaction using it?

Thanks for any help or suggestions!
