Im getting ready to set up a 33g tank and was thinking about black sand? Anyone out there have any pics of their tank with the black sand?

Black sand will bring out the colors in your tank, unfortunately everything that falls on it such as broken tube worm shells, bits of rock and frag plugs show up as white or grey and eventually litter the surface of the sand, at his point it does'nt look as nice.

How about Calcite?
I LOVE my Gray Coast:
It is not black, more of a deep gray. With white sand, the first thing your eye 'sees' is the sand, then the corals. In my tank, the corals are the brightest thing, not the sand.
Oh, and on the debris, get a goby... Problem solved.
