I read that you can see the detrius on the black sand more. Is this true ? I'm considering going with the black sand for my new tank.

I wouldn't say detritus, but instead bits and pieces of the rocks themselves that fall off and collect on the sand.

Of course it all dosen't matter when you have 1000+ baby cerith snails living in it. These little shells are everywhere... especially at night. (they cover the sand in a sea of white) They are starting to get bigger and head up on the rocks now, so it's been interesting to watch.

Where do you get black sand? It looks great.

I really like the look of the black sand. Hard to decide whether to switch to the black or go bare bottom. Anyways looks great.
