Any ideas on where to get live sand for cheaper than $45 for a 10 pound bag

Now keep in mind also, if adding sand on top of existing "live" sand you will likely suffocate the bacteria in the current "live" sand therefor a mini cycle will most likely take place. By adding more sand very slowly and over time you may avoid that all together.
Just something to think about
