Hi,
Can anyone tell me if the ultra fine white sugar from Caribsea is good for a DSB or for marine use in general?
It did not react to acid contact so I presume it does not contain any calcium however does it contain any bad components for marine use? My main interest is to use it for the lower part of the DSB in my refugium and coral frag tank that is attached to my display. I will be topped with a couple of inches of coral sand or maybe miracle mud which the LFS should have in stock in one month from now. I also will have a sand bed in my display tank mainly fine coral sand which has calcium in it so I guess I have enough sand for calcium contribution. What I like in this white sand is that it's really the fine sugar sized which would be great for anaerobic area, still the LFS owner tells me he thinks its only for Freshwater use.
Thanks for any input
