This may sound like a dumb question but do you need to acclimate live sand like you do fish? I was thinking of adding some more to my tank.
Here is some info on my tank.
Setup since 10/01/00
110 RR Oceanic tank
4x98 Custom Sealife Power Compacts
Wet/Dry Sump (removed have the bioballs since Nitrates started to rise)
Top Fathom Skimmer
175 pounds of live rock
2 to 3 inches live sand
Salinity 1.022
Temp 78
PH 8.2
ALK 3.5
Calcium 450
Ammonia 0
Nitrite .01 (For some reason I am see a very small amount of nitrite. I do not know why. I have done a water change and nothing has died.)
Nitrate 10
Livestock
2 clowns with carpet anemone
1 Naso tang
1 Marine Betta
1 dottyback
pulsing xerna (growing like crazy)
1 open brain
tons of snails and crabs
1 sea urchin
4 mushroom anemones
