Anyone bought the Carrib Sea sugar size sand from Drs foster smith

[marinerules]

I am going to buy 2 bags of the fiji pink sand and I was thinking about buying 2 bags of this carrib sea sand to add with the fiji pink sand


I used the live help on the website and the woman told me that the carrib sea has a slighter tan appearance rather than the bright white that the fiji pink sand has ,


anyone got pictures, or care to share just how TAN it is

I definatly dont want any shade of brown sand in my tank

[marinerules]

guess noone used it ?

[Myrphie]

I've used most of CaribSea's sand over the years and all of their tan/white-looking sand is definitely white under lights.

do you mean the Argamax? I just put 2 30 lb bags in , it looks white to me.

[CookieJar]

Ditto on the agramax- looks white and fine, just the look I wanted. I wonder how it'd look if mixed with pink, sounds kinda psychadellic.

[marinerules]

ok th anks guys, I was just curious on it , Im contacting both drs foster smith and petsolutinos to see which has teh cheaper shipping.


I was worried when she said it had more of a tan tint, but I think im going to order a couple bags

[marinerules]

oh , is it really sugar sized sand or is it just really small pebbles

[shag26272]

looks like sand to me, i got mine from Dr.fostersmith and the shipping was pretty cheap and it came in about 3 days

[marinerules]

yeah , says up to 3 bags and shipping is $10 bucks

[RonD]

Sugar sand here, its very fine and white as can be under ligthing.

[marinerules]

ok thats great, I am definatly going to be ordering me some of it

I went into a Home Depot today about 4 hours from where I live, but no southdown sand ,

So im going to be getting some of this

I plan on adding 2 bags with the live sand I have ,


Ive got two octopuses coming in shortly

Ive had them before and kept them successfully

[Rewd]

Just ordered this myself. Can't beat 4 30lb bags with shipping @ like 11 or 12 bucks. Most other sites will charge out incredible amounts because of the extra weight.

[marinerules]

I GOT THE SAND IN

and I really like it

the grain size, the color , the whole works

I will definatly be buying more of it

[shag26272]

I didnt bother rinsing mine, the water cleared for the most part in 1 day

[marinerules]

yea, im going to add mine really slowly over a periof of a few days

that fine stuff is good to have in a tank to
