I've always been curious about black sand and it seems like it would look really cool but I'd like to hear from you guys' opinions about how the finished tank looks...is it generally used alongside white sand or by itself?

I have not had it stick to any of the magnets yet. So it may not all be that way and I've had it in my tank for almost 2 yearsFYI... black sand is magnetic. It will stick to your glass cleaner.
Thanks for the pic! It looks pretty cool to me too...maybe I'll try it out on a nano tank to see if I can use it like you did.I have the caribsea black Hawaiian and it's not just black sand. It's a salt and pepper look. Personally I like the look.
I bet it makes some of the corals really "pop" because of the contrast.I have not had it stick to any of the magnets yet. So it may not all be that way and I've had it in my tank for almost 2 years
I've never considered myself a very creative kind of guy so before I try it on a nano tank I wanted to see what others had been able to do.It certainly makes the fish stand out, and the few corals I have.
Everyone has white sand. Lol But like I said it's not a solid black it's salt and pepper.
