Is Silica Sand BAD??
i got 50lbs of decorative white silica sand from home depot.
they don't seem to have the southdown tropical play sand up here in canada
anywayz, i heard that silica sand = bad
cuz it can cause brown algea blooms.
true?
it looks decent, kinda fine for my liking... but cheap.
are there any other problems that i should be aware of?
maybe i should just get it all out of my tank(its cycling right now)
and get some coral sand or aragonite or sumthing.
any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Huy
