Hi all,
I bought a 40lb bag of Caribea Pink Fiji sand for our Reefer 350, however I am understanding that is not quite enough. I also didn't consider purchasing live sand originally as we have live rock that has cycled and is in its own tank but now I'm thinking some live sand couldnt hurt. I will likely use a piece of PVC pipe to pour the sand down since the water is already in the tank (unless someone has a better suggestion of adding sand to a tank with water ?)
Would there be any benefit to mixing the sand types? Say with a bag of 20lb live sand (Hawaian Black for some cool colour differnce), or a bag of live Pink Fiji to maintain colour, I just thought the black might look cool mixed in . Of course, if this is a useless initiative, I'll just get another 20lbs of the dry Pink Fiji.
Thanks for any input
