I used it. As long as you put it in a empty tank and let the skimmer run for a couple days it clears up well.

It does cloud the water, and it does leave a foam but it all went away within a couple days.

I don't have issue with clouding when its disturbed.

I only bought it for convenience at the time, but I would just save money and use non-live sand.
