What should I do for sand now?

[mistahoo]

Live sand. Live rock.

[Johnsbra123]

Where could I get 30 pounds of live and what's the cost?

[johnnymisty]

As for live sand its up to you to decide wether or not you want a fine sand or coarse I had a fine sand in my tank and didn't really like it to much cause it gets stirred up easily and blown all over rocks and corals I like the carib sea special grade reef sand its a lil more coarse not to big just right imo and stays put

[johnnymisty]

The carib sea special grade reef sand was the cheapest at city pets I believe its was 40 for $40 but may honestly been cheaper than that

I personally just did my tank with dry rock from reefrocks.net and I used two 40 lbs bags of coral ice agronaite sand fro. Dennis at fjw is 35 a bag. Salt I use is called salinity. I the. Seeded my tank with 10 lbs of live rock and after the cycle time of 6 weeks ur dry rock will become live rock. Its cheaper this way an u do t have to worry as much about hit bickers and pests that come from live rock

[Johnsbra123]

Any body know where I can get 30 pounds for 25$ or some deal like that?

[johnnymisty]
