Default Type of substrate decided for me...

Well, I'm finished hooking up all my pumps, and they've decided that my tank will stay bare-bottom. I have 2 streams and a seaswirl from the return, and no way is any type of substrate going to stay put.
On the upside, the fish love the current, and the corals don't look too offended either.
Kinda funny watching hermits flying across the bottom of the tank

Well, all is not lost. I think once the tank grows in a bit, the sand might stay...in some spots anyway! If not, I guess I'll have alarge bag of sand for sale!

Hahaha your funny, you got more flow than me in a smaller tank and mine still doesen't stay on the up side once you get the coraline bottom like me the hermits can hang on to something

ya, I'm dreaming! There's a chunk of rock in one open area that is the size of a golf ball. It's moved about 4 inches in the current so far. Sand is never gonna stay put!
