ok so
1) doesnt matter what brand of play sand i get.. they will all wash out to be quite white (not as good as aragonite but what the hell play sand is dirt cheap
) ?
2) play sand will have no negative effects?
3) does anyone have a pic of their system with play sand in the DT?
Hy Buddy, ja i used the same regies play sand in my first and second tank in the DT and the DSB. Works great.
Now my 3rd tank has crouched coral in. also looks great.
Beats the price of R700 for a bag a aregonite.
Washing the play sand with normal tap water.
My first tank.
Rinse sand with RO about twice before adding to tank
DT of my first tank with like 6KG of LR, haha.
Reggies as substrate
DT of my first tank
Sump of my second tank.
DSB - Reggies
DT of my second tank.
Reggies. Just dident have the correct amount. Added more later.
And this is how my DT looks now.
Everything very happy.
Most of my stock list in this setup comes from my first setup that was running with reggies in DT and as DSB for about a year and a half.
Now all Live stock in the second setup and still going well.
So ja, i dont see a problem with reggies.
Ala cheapo, but it works.
