Which Sand?

[rdnyva]

Since Southdown has disappeared, I've been thnking about going with CaribeSea Aragamax Oolitic Select Suger Sized Reef Sand for my new 125. The grain size is 0.5-1.02. Is this a good sand or is there something else I should be looking at. Anybody have this stuff. I'm planning on going with a shallow sand bed.

It will work just fine.

DSB or SSB? For a DSB I think it will be fine, but for a SSB I would go with bigger grain size.

It's gonna be a SSB. They also have a .2-1.2 , would that be better? Why? Thanks for the input.

A fine sand is better for ssb a mix is better for dsb. The carib-sea website explains it all.
