I wouldnt do livesand. Just for the fact that is a waste of money. Bacteria cant survive in a bad with no water circulation, consistant temperature, or food.

You will save yourself money if you buy dry base sand. Just rinse it out well until the water runs clear before you add it.

If would do about 25Lbs of sand.
