is this substrate any good?

anyone have experience with this sand? i am upgrading from a 100 to a 180 and would probably get 90lbs of this stuff. my current sandbed isnt deep so i'd add a bit more than 1lb per gal.

you may want to check your local big box pet store (petsmart) Mine has #30 sugar fine for $19, but yep - that looks like it would work just fine
