If there is enough of a demand for swc sand then I will get another pallet delivered. There is about 70 bag's on a pallet so I would need about 30 to be for sure spoken for before I order a pallet.

So it there is intrest post here.
cheers

As to glass beads, I have about 3/4 of a bag of #7 beads here. You can get it at Manus Abrasives. It is best mixed with Aragonite, as I have traced my brown algae to the beads. I will have my entire sandbed in the 50 available when the livestock and corals, and live rock goes.
