    yea the argonite sand works well for everybody. I bought live sand in my 20 gallon and its a waste of money....no crtitters in it and its just wet sand.

    BTW tank looks good ;D

    I don't think i saw that you painted the back yet. If you are able to, go to a sign shop and buy 5 feet of black vinyl. It won't chip and the salt will not negatively affect the vinyl. Costs more than paint, but IMO it is worth it.
