A few years ago I ordered some sand direct from Southdown and I still have some bags left collecting dust. The bags are 40 lbs and I am selling them for $20 / bag.

Canadian Man,
I have both SPS and softies in my tanks. What do most of the RO users do with the waste water? I was thinking it would be good for the yard in the summer but I don't know in the winter.

I have Southdown available if you are interested. It comes in 40# bags which may be a bit of overkill for a 10g though.

Sorry to hear about your disaster. Did the seal break or did the glass break? If it was the glass I would say that you should add foam to the bottom to even out any imperfections. It sound kind of...

I would agree 48 hours should be OK for such a small tank, but since it is 20" high you might want to wait an extra day. I usually wait a week before I fill new tanks.
