you're speaking of store bought live sand in a bag which is true...probablly not very lively especially if its been sitting for over a year.

However I think what timbits wants is sand from an established reef which will have all sorts of worms and critters in it!

I have a bunch of sand from my dsmb in my sump, its not black but, LIVE.

pm me if interested!
