Hi all, I have another question...

I was offered some dried up sand...can that use?
I normallly buy a sealed bag that has water in it.

I'm starting a new tank, so was wondering if the dried up (months?)sand has the same beneficial things in it.

Thanks for your input.

You could use the sand still. It's dead sand now though. Just rinse it out in fresh saltwater and get someone with a live sand bead to give you a little bit of their sand to seed it. And in a few months it'll be good as store bought.

thanks for your inputs...I still got to cycle the tank first, might as well mix them. Just didn't know if the mix of sand would be harmful in the long run.
