Just got my Garnet sand!
It is an especially interesting color. It is from Idaho USA, the Emerald Creek where they mine for Star Garnets.
I just added it to my snail bowl and I like it.
Here is a pick of a hand full on a white paper towel, the pic of the snail bowl didn't come out well.

Bought the 50 lb bag for $18.99. It is very heavy and dense, and it looks like I will need part of another bag to do my 37G tank. Just got the one bag to make sure I wanted to spend a lot of time looking at it (in the tank).
The color is slightly lighter than in the pic.
Anyone using Garnet sand lets see your pics!
