 Right Amount of Live Sand?
I have a 2 1/2 week old 46 Gal. tank with 40 lbs of live sand. I was wondering if 40 lbs is enough. I have measured the sand bed from the bottom up, it measures only 2 inches! and so before buying any more sand I thought I'd ask you guys first. So, can I add more after 2 1/2 weeks? Please let me know. Thanks. Also, these spots have developed on the sand: what are they?
I forgot to mention the type of sand I have, it's Aragonite Ocean Direct Caribbean Live Sand.
A final question, I was planning on adding this:
Walt Smith's Fiji Gold Coral and Live Rock Supplement
* 100% natural calcium supplement for reef aquariums
* Made from seawater and coral reef substrate
* Contains calcium, magnesium, and other major trace minerals
to promote coralline algae grow...Will this help in any way? keeping in mind that my tank's only 2 1/2 weeks old. Thanks again guys. Peace.
