I just want a very nice white sand like the Bahama Oolite, I'm just concerned it is too fine and will become a problem and be particle may easily enter the water column? My other option would be Fiji Pink which is nice but it does not have that Caribbean type bright white sand look I love.

Any help or past experience/pictures will be much appreciated ! Thank you!

It's for my 72G mixed reef
 
I have used both the fine oolite and the Fiji pink. The oolite definitely gets pushed around and kicked up very easy so if you are planning on having a decent amount of flow I would go with the Fiji pink. It will get pushed around a bit but not nearly as much as the oolite. You can also look into the seafloor special grade. Its bigger grain but I really like the look of it. It's more than likely what I would use in any future builds.
 
Awesome I will take a look at that!
