 Re: Sand from Home Depot and Live sand good Mix?
Reef Guy,
Some Home Depots still carry the sand called Old Castle Tropical Play Sand, Its sand from the carribean that is agronite and perfect for our reefs. However I have heard that the company who mines the sand is not going to produce it anymore. It is becoming very difficult to find this sand anymore.
Aside from Old Castle I would stay away from anything else at HD, it probably will be silicate and not have the chemistry.
I personally used 45# of Old Castle Sand and 20# of Agrolive live sand in my tank.
