Hello,
When I first got into this hobby my friend was in the process of moving a 150 out of state.
I was just getting started and he gave me two 5 gallon buckets full of LS.
Well since my tank was not even ready for sand ( I was building my rock wall) and I set it outside in my back yard. He said it should be good for about a week.
And then I forgot all about it
So today I found it and was thinking about what can I do with it? I was thinking a DSB in a ten gallon? Or adding it all to my 55 and increasing the depth an inch or two. Maybe a few LBS in the nano.
But what do I do to the sand in preparation?
I can only imagine after sitting in a bucket for 6 months it must be pretty nasty. How would I clean it? Is it even any use to me now?
I really appreciate any suggestions at all.
Thank you.
