I ended up with a couple little orange snails after buying Caribsea Ocean Direct...at the time my tank was new and all I had was plastic corals and some rocks I found while camping. I hadn’t added any livestock yet. I was pleasantly surprised. I just bought it because I found it on eBay cheaper than dry.
As for the OP: if you’re cycling, the dead organics in the sand will help get the ball rolling too and won’t do any harm unless you have residents in your tank.
