    take a 10" filter canister fill it with aragonite, plumb it so that your RODI topoff runs through it, the sand will dissolve in the RODI.

    i like the idea of crushing the oyster shell and tumbling it with sand you could add to your tank! A childs rock tumbler would work but thats alot of money, so the idea would consist of creating a cheap rock tumbler! hmmmm
