Sand needed

[Radicaljbr]

Anyone ever find any sand locally?

I am talking about the Southdown or Tropical something..... I do not remember the name it switched to.

I need a bag to refill my DSB.

None at Home Depot or Canton nursery.

Thanks



:bum:

OK, Where does everyone get their sand then?

I bought ESV Oolitic from Salty Critter. $30 for 50lbs I think, but don't quote me.

Quickrete sand is what I have in my display. Some people are scared of it because it is silica sand but I think the silica in my glass has been OK in my aquarium so far

If you have sand already there then it should become live very quickly if you just top off and stir the top layer around slightly.

LOL i started that "where can i get southdown/oldcastle?" thread 1 year ago exactly

Never did find it. Kevin gave me some sand, and then dennis gave me a bag of live sand. I could probably spare some live if needed Radicaljbr

I finally got my new sump/fuge put together and I need it to start up the fuge. The fuge is 14x8 and I am wanting to make it around 6" deep.

Right now I have some LR down there and already there are a ton of copods and my macro is taking off. Almost hate to ruin the copods home, but the crap is starting to collect at the bottom and need the DSB.

I would love any donations or cheap sand. I had 10 bags of the southdown or Tropical sand from North Canton nursery, but donated the few remaining bags I had and of course now you cannot find it. I guess North Canton stopped carrying it.
