My current tank has fiji pink i believe but for this new tank was looking at some dry sand to start the tank with.
Is sugar sand too small or is it ok.
also any good online places to get dry sand for a good price

LOL..we need a smiley that says OOOO!
Sugar size is what most use. I'm sorry I can't help with where to purchase, but dry sand (aragonite) can be found in most anywhere and the LFS. I would just love to see a picture of your tank with pink sand,
I was real close to getting it once and chickened out on what it might look like....if it was really pink or not so much.

I just looked again at my tank and i may not have fiji pink..... cause its not really a pink color..
So the sugar sand should be ok then with a CUC like nasarius snails?

Still post a picture, that's what I was told that the sand is not that deep of a color, I would just like to see it. As for the CUC..the sand seeds just like dead rock does, and I have sugar size sand and nas snails, they keep it nice and stirred up.

I have figi pink, and it's pretty white to me....
I used SeaChem dry sand recently and it seemed to be fine.
