Great sand, I will buy again.

This sand has slightly larger grains than the sand I used to buy which is an advantage for me as it doesn't fly all over the place. I bought two 50 gallon tank bags. Configuration. One bag had a lot of water and was very wet and the second bag was a little less wet but manageable. It worked well when you could mix them together. The sand looks very clean and beautiful. I would definitely buy again! I give four stars because of the dryness of one bag. While this wasn't a big deal for myโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Base required

My son's biggest Christmas wish was a small saltwater aquarium. We bought this sand and received it on Christmas Eve and just packed the box it came in. When we opened the box straight from the Caribbean, to our surprise it wasn't the Fiji Pink Sand we ordered, but planted aquarium soil with black stones. Definitely not an opponent for the offshore oil rig that was awaiting assembly. Very disappointed that we can't spend part of the day setting up the aquarium today and instead need almost 2โ€ฆ

The perfect bed of sand, she's alive!

The bags came with seawater and are not dry like most you will find on the shelves of your local fish shops, that's good! Carib Sea is one of my trusted brands when it comes to aquarium substrates and decorative stones. This mark is closely related to "aragonite", "living sand", "no waiting". Fiji Pink is the perfect bean size which I prefer. , does not deflate easily, ideal for snails, crabs, shrimp and worms. Although this sandbag will definitely cloud your aquarium during initial placementโ€ฆ

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Not bad

Ideal for finer grain substrate

I started my reef with Arag-Alive Special Grade but wanted something with finer grains especially after getting the sand sieve gobies as they looked like they were struggling to get really good become sips with a special mark. Fiji Pink turned out to be exactly what I wanted. Similar in size to sand on a beach, this material is nice and fine, but not so fine that it is easily kicked up or compacted like dusty/muddy materials. I am very happy with Fiji Pink and will now be using it in my reefโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

Gorgeous colour, perfect grit, my favorite saltwater primer

I love this stuff, it's been my favorite for over a decade - great colour, perfect grit, no dust no fine grit. Things to consider when ordering. Firstly you may need more weight compared to the substrate supplied dry as some water weight wouldn't matter much in a small tank but it can add up to an extra bag. in a large tank that uses several. Second, you probably don't want to wash it, as that defeats the purpose of transporting it wet with salt water, ready to pick up good bacteria when youโ€ฆ

Pros
  • quality construction
Cons
  • repair
