![]() I Tried black sand but I found it just absorbed to much light, didn't reflect any back.. went to salt and pepper, then kicked myself in the butt for all the money I had wasted.. finally went to regular sugar aragonite.. no more kicking myself now.

![]() Well I'm going to give it a try. I am not going for any super light corals yet. I have 550 watts of CF light on the tank right now so i'll give it a try. Maybe in a year or so if I find I cant get the light i'll change it. A person has to try
![]() Right now the skimmer is pulling a light "Chinesse resturant coffee" coloured goop ![]()
