John,

Average coverage for fine sand is about a lb per gallon. So at least 100# estimated to start would be a reasonable minimum. Enjoy the setup!

Hey andy what kind of lights was used on this I wanna use MH but was told not to because of the brace and dark areas

 

[andywe]

I don't concur with that opinion at all. That tank will do perfectly fine with MH. I use MH lights.

Dang, Travish where were you when I posted my sand thread?

Well Andy I know I can use MH But I was told if I used it over the brace the UV from it overtime would cause the brace to crack and the tank would bust or I would just have a dark spot where the brace was
