I have 10 20lbs. bags of CaribSea Arag-Alive, live aragonite reef sand. Here is the situation I bought them for a 180 gallon setup, soon after buying them I decided to upgrade to a 300 gallon reef tank. So first on the bag it says good till December 2017. I bought them about 10 months ago they have been sitting in a controlled environment in my computer room packed in the original boxes from MD online. I am getting very close to putting water in my tank finally. My question is should I just rinse this supposed live sand put it over my egg crate and add some live sand from local lfs or should I just use it as is? I can see that there is still seawater in the bag but I just don't want a problem with the sand after everything I have done for my pukani dry rock. Any advice is welcome please.
