I would just use live sand. you will thank me in the end!! Good Luck!!!Welcome to swf
the only playsand i recomend would be southdown(if you can find it) you can cycle the tank with this playsand and lr/shrimp then after cycle put the live on top.
will have to clean the playground sand alot so there isnt so much dust
