Where do we buy aragonite sugar fine sand (for a RDSB in our 'fuge) without going broke? We had sticker shock at the LFS tonight. They wanted about $2/lb. and we need lots of lbs.!

You can get it at about $1/lb. off the internet. Other than that you could get lucky and ind someone who stockpiled some southdown from years ago, thats what I did. You can also use fine grade sandblasting sand, but I'm unfamiliar about this.
