I view it as a disclaimer.
There are some individuals that have had problems with it. But, on RC, there are two that I remember. The rest (1000s) have been happy with it.
The problems could have been due to usage. Both times, it seems, sand was put into old tanks causing great sand storms. Never heard of a problem with a new tank.
I have personally used about 30 bags without incident.

Thats just SD's way of escaping any law suits, if you decided to sue them cause your fish died.
Yes old castle has bought SD and will be distributing the sand this spring. Same sand diffrent name.
Yardright is the same sand as SD, diffrent bag. Same source, Just advertised for diffrent regions or something.

southdown for sale
I live in the North Lake Tahoe area and after a lot of phone calls and string pulling, I am potentially getting a full pallet of Southdown. This means I will have over 50 bags for sale to anyone who can make it to my garage and load it up! I say potentially because it has not actually arrived yet, although it is being shipped out tomorrow. If anyone has any interest, E-mail me for more info. I plan on selling them for around $10-$15 a bag, depending on what the final total cost will be.

Stopped by the HD at exit 2 tonight. Outside garden, back corner on the right. All they had was Quickcrete brand play sand. Is this what you bought?
I found one bag of SD at the HD in Smithfield, I295 exit 7 in RI. Everything else there was Quickcrete as well.
Found other references to Quickcrete in this forum. I really am looking for something white, not the dirty Quickcrete color. I guess I'll see what the LFS has and pay through the nose.
Thanks

Its on the left side. Once you go in thru the not so automatic door, you keep going strait. If its not there, it must have been moved somewhere, they tend to do that. There were like 50 bags on a pallette. The quickrite play sand is ok, if you like that brown color.
Spring is only weeks away, Old castle will be shipping the sand since HD holds it as a seasonal item. Id wait.

Does Anyone recommend rinsing this sand??? I mean i can only imagine how dusty it might be. I wonder if I use the "cup" method where i slowly drip water into a cup until it overflows, if that'll work to keep the tank dustless in my 55 GALLON
