I just got back from LFS looking for dechlorinator and some ammonia test kit, I got the ammonia kit but the guy said I didn't need the dechlorinator since my salt mix (Instant Ocean) already does all the job. he says it has tons of buffers and all other stuff in it that takes out most of the things I need to get rid of. surprised me he didn't try to sell me anything. anyways, Is this true?
Also, I was looking for play sand at home depot and they had tons of 'em and didn't know which to get, but most of them are grey colored which I really didn't like. I saw one that was white but it was made of silica and it had a big WARNING sign on it that its toxic to humans so I didn't get it too.
is that ok for my tank?, which kind of sand should I get (specific) at home depot? I don't want to get one from LFS because it really pricey and they're only about $5 in Home Depot. People here have told me before that Its fine to get some sand there and its really cheap but does it have to be gray?
Thanks In Advance!!!!!
