    Sand Only or Sand & Crushed Coral???

    What's a Good Amount of LR?

    I am a new aquarian hobbyist and have a few questions: 1. What is a good amount of LR? I have a 38 gallon tank. 2. What is good pricing for LR? 3. What is a good amount of fish (per inch) for my 38 gallon tank? 4. Is it wrong to use non-RO water (aka de-chlorinated tap water)?
