Question

moving and a sand question ...


We are preparing a move across town. I have a well established 80 gallon. I will be ordering new sand and I was wondering how many pounds should I order? I like it about 2 inches or more deep. Also what do you guys think about different grades of sand (mixing it)? Thanks in advance for your help.

Mixing gets ugly as the small stuff works its way down and you just have the bigger stuff on top. And how much depends on how much you like? How much did you put in it before?
