Live sand

I have never used it but Garf' Grunge is supposed to be great

 

I've used it, and love it, except, I don't like the rubble thats included. I got ALL kinds of extra goodies from them when I orderred 15lbs of grunge a few years back. Macro algae, some zoanthid polyps, xenia polyps, some anthelia polyps, small chitons, mini brittles and some other stuff as well, you can;t go wrong. I also picked up some live sand activator from Indo Pacific Sea farms ( www.ipsf.com ) and some from Inland Aquatics ( www.inlandaqua.com ? ).

 

oops, I shoulda read the initial post, huh? Matt, don't worry bout your critters wiping out you new aquired live sand critters. Just feed first like Karla said, and go for it. I added mine midday with no rel noticable loss.

 

when u guys add your live sand was there a lot of white cloudy stuff in your water. There is in mine I added some yesterday and it finally must of settled now.

 

Is it a good idea to add sand from my established tank to my new 20 gal nano to seed it?
if so how much should I add? I have 4" argonite in there allready? in my 20

 

Yeah that's a good idea.
Just swap a few pounds.
Should help.

 

Spread a cup or two of live sand from an established tank in a thin layer over the sand bed and let nature do the rest.

 

i already added LS that I bought. does that white milky stuff always happen when u add it.

 

yup!

 

how long til it goes away for u.
