Yesterday per-advised... I removed all my crushed coral from my tank and went to the lfs and got this live sand...its black and white and looks like a mushed up oreo cookie, its actually pretty cool...NOW THAT I CAN SEE IT! It was a big foggy mess yesterday and couldn't see any of my fish...thought they were all dead...nope, got up this morning and they seem SO much happier!! My crabs have even came out to play which is very unusual! I guess I can say I'm glad that I did it...I also got 15 more pounds of live rock...this hobby is costing me a fortune lol, hopefully now all my levels will be normal soon!

Never seen the black and white live sand. Was the bag that it was in have water in it? If not, you bought regular dead sand. You will need to seed it with like a cup of livesand from anestablished tank. Barry
