wanted: some live sand to help my refugium get started (edmonton)

[Nexus13]

hey all,

i've been talking lots with kelly a.k.a. TheReefShoppe (who i might add is an awesome guy with a deep background knowledge of all things salt water aquarium) asking him about this Magic Mud stuff.

Apparently its a bit of an overrated product and not as essential as the guy at BIg Al's made it sound.

so anyways, i'm looking for a substitute to this.

Im' just getting my tank going. only cycled for about 2 days now.

29 gallon main tank and 10 gallon sump.

any help in making this happen with some live sand would be awesome!

thanks
Daniel
