What's that sand you mix with LS? I only need 5# more than what I
have.

I also need only 15 lbs. of LR. Anyone know where I can get it?

Thanks.

Well evidently you had sand and live rock already so where did you get
those items at. Any marine fish store should have what you need as
well as most Petco stores........If you like ot order online check out
Drs Foster and Smith or do a google search.the internet is loaded with
sources............

I have been mixing in "Pool Sand" from home depot for decades.
It is 100 Percent silica - which is what you are looking for from what you
typed.
Better to go with crushed coral but if it is sand you wan there is your
answer - silica - 50lb bags about 7 bucks at any home depot - it is called
"Pool Sand"

So being a founder of a ****ed up one or two man / boy operation you
hang a ****ign fancey name on is supposed to impress someone. Get a

whats the consensus on this thread, its not better to go with crushed
coral IMO, so now has anyone used silica? i thought you wouldnt want to
use this, as the grain particle is not the proper shape, where theres
not enough surface area.

I bought the live sand, white - very fine, and it's a PIA. Looks good
but as soon as ANYTHING touches it (including a fishes tail), it
clouds the tank.

Doing it over I would buy 'dolomite(sp) and a vial or 2 of live
bacteria. Anyway, it would be course and bought at Home Depot.
