Substrate size

[Reefgoat]

I have the caribsea original and would recommend against it. I have a bag of Aragamax select sitting here that I plan to replace it with. The Aragamax select has a nice small size without the very fine dust of the original grade. It has a very clean, fine, consistent look. I probably prefer it visually to the special grade reef sand but the special grade does have at least one significant addtional benefit.

I have the special grade reef sand in my larger tank. I really like it. It is great for placing frags on the sand as although it can still be burrowed in by animals it doesn't move too easily and definitely doesn't blow around.
