sand in my new tank

[davemc1234]

Just setting up my upgrade and never used sand on the bottom only corse gravel .So this time I want to have a nice golden colour like some of the tanks that I have seen ,I mainly will be keeping sps so I will have a lot of flow ,what would be my best option so it does not get blown round .many thanks .

Caribsea seaflor special grade is what you want - large enough to not get blown around too much.

from sugar grain sand.
