Agronite?

[beginnermatt]

I've heard of this stuff but i'm not sure of its function and what it is. Which department in home Depot can it be found in. Thanks

It is a type of sand just as there is a silica base sand.

Aragonite is a calcium carbonate based mineral. I have also inquired as to its benefits ( my geology professer would kill me for even asking cause I shouldve known better) anyway it helps buffer acid in the water which will help control pH levels. I still dont know if it is better to use than coral.

If you get it fine enough it looks a lot better that cc, and it also helps with nitrate levels. Eventually it will become "live" and will be more filtration too.

Thanks for the reply. Is there a specific type/brand that homedepot sells. Thanks again.
