reef Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 it is too expensive to get the above coral sand, like the stuff you mention from caribsea, best to get coral sand from you local shop. mine is about 1inch thick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misnoma Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 I just got coral sand from Jansens, mine's only 1" thick at the most, and the powerheads styled it into a wavy pattern for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Posted October 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 and how much per kilo was it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reef Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 pure white and really fine like sugar is it possible to get that here Yep i got some from Hollywood, looks brown but once in the tank it is nice white, hard to keep white if you dont have great water quality. so you need ro/di, big skimmer, phostphate remover.
