The Puffer Forum

This confuses me

The listing says CLASSICA MARINE ARAGONITE CORAL SAND REEF CICHLID MALAWI AQUARIUM TANK GRAVEL, the drop down menu lists 10kg 1mm coral sand, yet the image shows marine aragonite. @maccyg is this the stuff you have?

Either have a shallow bed at 1" or a DSB at 5". Anything in between is asking for trouble & needs to be THOROUGHLY stirred, weekly. I'm assuming this is SW with LR?

Ok sorry for hijacking the thread. I guess I'll pull some some of the sand out.

So is this the right stuff? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CLASSICA-MARI ... 6fd1b5804c If I get it ordered monday, it should be delivered wednesday, have the tank cleaned and sands swapped out by wednesday night, and maybe, just maybe I can pick up my puffer on friday.

Edit:
No need to worry about hijacking welch we all need help

Since I can't seem to find out if coral sand is aragonite, would this be ok?
http://www.charterhouse-aquatics.co.uk/ ... 12011.html the grain size is 0.5mm to 1.5mm

EDIT:
Went for the red sea reef pink.

If it's a SW/reef tank, play sand is fine.

I've got about 3 inches of black sand & substrate mixed...is this ok to have in my tank? My fahaka puffer is 7 inches & is just now getting too big to bury himself to hunt. I also see everyone has light colored sand for their puffers...is the black sand I have safe? We've used black sand since we got him about 6 months ago & have had no issues other than its difficult to clean with a gravel vac sometimes

Just make sure you thoroughly stir every inch weekly. Or narrow it down to 1".
