What is the best type of live sand??

[goofieones]

Hello, I am going to be switching to sand. I have seen a couple of types of live sand. The Natures Ocean stuff which is a little bit larger particles than this other stuff I found, which has smaller particles, but I don't remember the name. My question is which is better the larger or smaller particles? Better for keeping the tank stable and clean. Both cost the same amount so that isn't a factor.
Thanks

I used a mix of 60 lbs natures ocean with 20lbs of carib sea oolitic......makes for a good substrate in my opinion...........

I used 20lbs Natures ocean and 50lbs of Southdown sand and it worked really well. I like it a lot, and would recommend it to anyone. It almost has the same shelf life of a Hostess Twinky. (9 months)

You can buy it right here on this site.They will ship it right to your door. Not sure about the cost,you can look it up in the store.SWfish sells the Natures Ocean we are all talking about.
