CaptJackalope89 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I am upgrading my tank from a 110 to a 180 and am hoping to save some money by using dry sand. Is there a good place to buy it? I have been seeing it for about 1$ a pound... That seems a bit pricey for sand. Is that the going rate or are there better options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptJackalope89 Posted October 31, 2016 Author Share Posted October 31, 2016 Thanks guys, I willl probably go with macro rocks sand. I was hoping to pay more like 50¢ a pound but nothing seems to be cheap when setting up a new tank! haha It looks like good sand also, do you or know anybody who uses it?
