Ok i'm starting this thread because i can't find anything to help me on the subject or any that discuss it seriously or "in dept" as it were and it may help others too looking for answers.
I'm doing my system soon and i'm in the market for my sand bed, and i noticed a lot of new product that are being pushed by the stores or being promoted any way. Before all i heard was "Aragonite" and that was IT!!! It was the choice of champion and blah blah, but now i'm all confused.
I was told before coarse sand was better. If memory serves, better aeration, less nutriment trapping, and so on. Now lots of fine and extra fine sand have creeped up . Can we have a rational discussion on the subject on the different attributes of each. Anybody?
I personnaly like to know i'm not a newb but certanly not an expert on anything and i want to learn . I'm actually surprise not to find anything on the subject since its a big part on are tanks covering the entire floor and no mention or any sticky on this important component of are hobby
