Yes, you can use sand in a freshwater aquarium. It rarely makes a difference for the fish and wouldn't make a difference for your tetras at all. Sand is generally considered to be much harder to keep clean than regular gravel.

I wouldnt use sand specially for salt water tanks, but there is fine gravel for freshwater tanks you can buy at a pet store. I'm going to get fine gravel next time I get the chance, but I'm looking forward to the answer for this

Please don't call anyone else stupid, since you have already killed fish and keep asking silly questions about your FIVE GALLON TANK. Are you REALLY going to try to put sand in that rinky little thing, and kill more fish in it? Do you just like torturing small living creatures? You have some issues.

No, because the sand will rise to the top and it will get into the fishees gills and the fish might well you know:(
