I know its ok to use regular lowes or home depot quickcrete or regular silica based play sand in marine tanks, as I used to ahve one , i had inverts and fish ,
But can octopus live with this sand mixed with live carribean sand
I would buy extra tufa rock , and also crushed coral to help buffer
I have a 240 tank and cant affrod 12 bags of $45 calcium based sand at our petstore , so I am going to have to resort to a little substituion
I was planning on mixing 80 lbs with about 100 lbs of live sand from teh fish store
will this work ?
any dangers in using silica sand with octos?
