new substrate
 
With the crash took out all what was left of the sugar sized sand and with 17000 gph flow it blew around badly. Picked up some of this http://www.jlaquatics.com/phpstore/s..._ID=cs-asfcc15 Is it good t use or should i use something else ? running full zeo so no live sand

All sand and subsrates become "live" after while.

i know that after time it also gets micro organisms but to start its had a funky bacteria thing if live sand is used

Wes,

Goto petsmart, they carry a nice Caribsea 30lb bag of aragonite for $22 if I remember right. A lot lower than my price from a wholesaler, think they marked it wrong.
