You could always add sand later on. This to shall end!!!
Sand can be frustrating at times, but it looks most natural!
And I understand what it's like to buy stuff off Craigslist and have it turn out not as advertised or expected! But your doing the right thing on making the best out of what you have! this is gonna be a nice tank
Thanks Evan! Hope I can live up to the expectation!
It will exceed expectations haha!
So what's moon sand? Is that the black stuff?
Yes!!! I had black gravel in my freshwater tank and it really made everything pop. Love to see things in a saltwater tank pop. But I'm not sure how that would work or if it would just generally be a bad idea. Not entirely sure but I'm leaning towards the black sand.
I'm thinking of moon sand. Whatcha think?
Becarful with stuff that isnt true sand in reef tanks. Alot of the time it is loaded with silicates that will leach into the tank and cause alot of algae issues. Make sure what ever sand you get if you plan on doing it is for reef tanks.
And yes with old systems there is normally some nasty worms in it because they used live rock and the worms came along with the rock and multiplied into 100s or 1000s. There are a few black sands that are made with aragonite that would work well. Honestly i really like black sand in a reef tank and if I was going to ever use sand thats the color i would use.
if you dont like the scratches you can take scratches out of acrylic. and yes you can do the inside. you will just need to do a quick google search on "removing scratches from acrylic", I dont think its hard i just think it takes some time based on what iv read. acrylic scratchs extreamly easy and thats why you dont see many acrylic tanks being sold new anymore.
Never heard of it! Sounds out of this world!! Like clever said there is some good black reef sand. You on schedule to finish?
Quick... Which one is it???
Thank you kind sir. Just to be sure... This one correct?
