Daryna88 Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 Okay what about aragonite sand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malrift Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Just go to bunnings get the double wash sand(white) or double washed river sand(brown). $8 for 20 kg. The other option is calcium carbonate if you want it to buffer as well. I use aqua pics buffers so sand is fine if you are adding a comercial buffer.
