Hello,
I bought a bag of caribsea black sand Hawaiian for my nano project and I wanted to show you what it look like, I haven't seen anyone making a comparison like this so I hope this will give you an idea.
I'm currently waiting for a ICP test and once I receive it I will publish the results with you :)

I don't feel comfortable putting SPS/LPS in my tank with some of those concentration, some of them are fine and can get depleted with algae and other but stuff like nickel, manganese (super high), Silicon, worry me a lot

tagging @Randy Holmes-Farley for opinion, and if anyone have input, feedback on this let me know.

Small stuff but:
- My salinity is set at 20ppt for cycling
- Tropic Marin Reef Pro salt
- Seachem Matrix for bio media
- Keep in mind this is a mix of the "black Hawaiian" (Info Pacific) and Eco-Complete sand from Caribsea
