Live Sand from LFS


Recommended Posts

  • SRC Member

Just went to LFS to look at fishes n corals....and also to find live sand for my tank next week.....

They are selling live sand at $5/kg......is it worth it?

And also what is the different between their live sand and live sand packed in sealed packaging?

Any bros here have experience in this?

Where are those Reefer that said we should not openly mention lfs..I don't see ayone jump to help the lfs.. I don't think this is fair to the lfs who,is,also a sponsor... These remarks does more damage them what I posted last few .. Weeks and was edited
