Looking (begging?) for Sand Donations

[StirCrazy]

Darren actualy the sugar sand in my glass is clearing much faster than I have witnessed in tanks with cirulation and bacteria growth.. heck from saturday night to tonight is only 4 days the tank at the lfs took almost 2 weeks to clear the first time then another week after it was stired up. and there is lots of bacteria in the water I used.. it was strait out of my fishtank .. I didn't use tap water.

this power head trick does sound good but Ihave heard it befor and I am not sure I quite understand it.. by doing this won't you suck sand throught the tube into your powerhead?

hehe I didn;t mean to give the impresion that the sugar sand isn't clearing, it just isn't clearing as fast as the dolomite in the glasses. as far as I am concerned it doesent mater to me if it takes up to two weeks to clear I got nothin but time [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

seriously thought my main concern in this exparament is how it affects the PH of the watter not the clearing ability.. that just turned out to be a suprising bonus.

Ph's today
dolomite 8.2
caribsea 8.0
