Hello reefers, I would love some feedback on everyones experiences with live sand. What brand and type have you used and liked/disliked.. I am planning on making a DSB in my mixed reef ( hard, soft ). I will be implementing a fuge in the sump with substrate as well.Been reefing for awhile and am familiar with some types and brands but word of mouth is the best referral...
Want to get about 50lbs of sand .

i got some sugar fine sand from some company on ebay ( it was great), then i went to my lfs and got 10 lbs of medium sand- i started getting bubbles from the base layer in 1 month

I like the fine stuff. I've been seeing more and more bare-bottom tanks, but I still like having a sandbed. A DSB can be dangerous if left sitting for a long time, then agitated

I'm not sure the brand is going to make much difference
