southdown sand

[devaji108]

Does any one have any leads on the sothdown sand? I googled it and found no real place to get. Home depo used to carry it I heard but was still very hard to find one that sold it.
There homepage would not give any info on any sand at all.
I also read that it was bought out and changed there name to old castle??
Any info on this sand? Is still around? would be great.

people have said they changed there name to old castle. But im not to sure. I have also heard people using the sand form walmart. What i did with my tank was used a 1/2 bag of old castle, a bag of that LS with the water in it and also added some agarinite sand. that way you kind save some money but. Look on the web for old castle

Home Depot no longer carries southdown or old castle. I've never seen it sold anywhere else. Your only chance may be to find someone local who has a bag stashed away.

My home depot still carried it as of September. It isn't called South Down anymore. I don't remember if it was Old Castle or something else, but it was definitely the same stuff. You might need to wait until spring time for them to have it in stock again. Good luck.
