Sand:  Used Exclusively at AquaCorals

Beware!  Not all sand products are the same.  What it's made up of (calcium based) & grain size is very important.  The larger the grain, the deeper the sand bed needs to be to create enough anoxic (low to no oxygen) area for denitrification.  I have found the below to be the absolute best & it's the only sand products I use ...& it's always in stock at AquaCorals.  See my "Sand Chart" below for how much to use for your tank!
