Reef tanks using TBS sand

Is there an option to order a finer sand than the normal stuff? I’m assuming not or you’d have that option on the site. Something without as much shell in it? Not a deal breaker, just never seen it in person. Does sifting the large stuff out harm it or change it enough to matter?

My lighting definitely leans more toward daylight than windex-blue (I sincerely hope that fad ends soon!).

I used all TBS sand in my mostly LPS tank. I used TBS rock as well and had no uglies aside from diatoms at the beginning. I vacuum it weekly, but only sections at a time. My diamond goby sifts it all day long and the canary wrasse buried in it just fine.
