Hi All
I'm thinking about adding some sand from the NY beaches - no, not the cesspool from the NYC beaches - much further out on Long Island. A few questions hoping to get some input - esp if you are local.. @Paul B maybe? would much appreciate your input.
1) Over the July/4th week I'm making a trip out to the tip of Long island by the Lavender Fields - any good beaches in the area that i can pull some sand? (or along the way)
2) later in the month I'm going to Fire Island Pines - are those sand good enough to take back?
3) When i do take it back - what's the process of adding it to tank? leave it in a container and observe/quarantine first? or dump it all in right away? If quarantine first, what should I do to make sure the microfauna stays alive? Looking to add maybe 1 liter worth for a 29G DT
TY!
