    I have a dsb with 2-3" of kitty litter (red Special Kitty $2.25 bag @ Walmart) and 2-3" of marcorocks.com sand. Have plenty of bubbles that formed quickly under the sandbed surface.

    Thanks, this is what I was looking for, as I want to put mud under the sand and now I know it has a potential for success.
