Substrate survey
Hi,
I want to create a thread on what everyone is using for substrate from bare bottom to whatever kind of sand you chose, why you chose it, and your satisfaction with it. Thanks! - Matt

SSB(~2.5") Pavestone pulverized limestone.
Chosen due to cost, and good reviews from others who have used it. Aside from the sandstorm the first week or so, I love it. Robb |

I am currently using shallow sand bed, wiwth Arag Alive Special Reef grade 1-2mm. I feel that it gets to dirty. I am going with Fiji Pink on the tank that I am setting up now.
