Does Size Matter?
Thats kinda personal. But......Ok. I am in the process of setting up a 75 gal with 30 gal sump/refugium. I just finished welding up a stand and painted it yesterday. Hopefully on the DIY page tomorrow. At a little better than a buck a pound for sand and 8 bucks a pound for rock it gets terribly expensive. Although I think I was paying 15 or 16 bucks a pound in 1992-93. I plan on making about 100 - 120 pounds of rock and then seeding it with store bought. I am going to be into the rock for about 50 cents a pound before curing. I have already succumbed to the fact that I have to pay 35 bucks for 30 pounds of sand.
Cheers,
Al
