You can get the CaribeSea aragonite sand for $30-40 per 40lbs bag at most retailers, but if I were to do it again I would go with the live sand that Caribsea makes called Eco Complete. It's higher quality(IMO) and is so much cleaner. The cheaper aragonite take forever to get clean

Ok so i got back thursday night and friday was a crazy day picking up the tank. I had arranged to go and pick up a 130 from a guy off craigslist included stand, tank, lights, magnum 350 canister filter. The lights turned out to be 2 power compact 36" cora life but the stand was wood and had been in a house with no A/C for 6 months and needless to say it was pretty much junk that has to be completely re done on the bracing side. I was very sad. BUT got everything for 185 instead of 250 I say a pretty good deal. We then went to city pets picked up the aragonite and got the tank drilled and picked up the hardware priced a cheap stand and it was 300 no thanks fish land quoted 250. We then went to fish ranch and looked around they have really shrunk since the last time I was there been a while but the guy had an oceanic stand solid top solid bottom furniture grade stand for 150 so I got that. 8150829084_d74d4f42a9_m.jpg130 gallon lake malawi breeding community tank red zebra with true blue male, Mosobo "deep", Rusties, Taiwan reef.

Current stock list Taiwan reef, pseudotropheus deep, Rusties. So far so good the rusties and the deep's are schooling together all through out the tank and the Taiwan reef fish are keeping to themselves. 20121104_201335.jpg130 gallon lake malawi breeding community tank red zebra with true blue male, Mosobo "deep", Rusties, Taiwan reef.
