...Black Sand...

Are there any issues that come with the sand?

What is the best/finest grade black sand?

Unless you keep it really clean, you see nasties on it easily and QUICK! Otherwise, its nice looking sand and no other issues come to my mind.

Best im not sure of since i dont use it anymore (was on my FW tanks).

There is another thread about problems with black sand. You should look for it.
