nope haven get sand yet. will buy either tomorrow or thursday from reborn.

i scaping first then put sand. and sand + rocks go in after water. i foresee it's going to be very difficult but never-mind. i like a little challenge

im using a mixture of grade 1 and 3 sand in the ratio of maybe 60%-70% grade 1 and 40%-30% grade 3.

reason i'm putting my rocks first then putting sand is coz i'm going to perimeter my rocks with coarser sand then covering it up with mixture of grade 1+3.

so i can keep jawfish and pistol+shimp gobies around my rocks.

Nice Idea...

[yikai]

Nice Idea...

can't control where the jawfishes and stonogobiops wanna make their hole, but since it's always around liverocks, i'll just border the entire liverocks with coarser sand so they can build their holes. lol

Huh? Reflect light? I think I will stick to black...

[Copperband]

read somewhere before white sand does reflect back abit of light to undersides of corals... not blindingly reflective la...abit only... should be beneficial to corals...

[raydiative]

hmmm... why would it be beneficial to the corals???
