I am tearing down one of my SW reefs and turning it into an African (Malawi) cichlid tank. Mostly just some LR and LS (Live-Sand) left.
My LFS said that I can keep the LS but just wash it well and you can use if for FW. Sounds reasonable. Any opinions on this??

Shouldn't be a problem at all. I'd mix in some bleach just to be sure.

It is Argonite sand. Would like it to buffer African tank. It is still in SW tank now.

I don't see any issues on it. I think there was a recent thread on this.
