Re: 125G Build
Great tank!Have you thought about using moon sand or eco complete?Also,Susan used black beauty blasting sand.Call around to some sand blasters in your area and see what they have.

Re: 125G Build
Yeah that's what I was thinking but I have no idea whom in my area would carry it. And I'm not going to pay 5$ per bag with a 55$ shipping fee some people are posting. lol
Ok so it seems Virginia Materials 757-855-0155 sells Black Beauty (Coal Slag), see what they prices are.

Re: 125G Build
Okay, I live in Florida...I would love to have some of the substrate...100LBS for 14.50, but at that price that must be just for your area. I used river rock but I would like to change it in my African Cichlid tank...up in the air with what I want to use.

Re: 125G Build
If there is a cheap shipping 100lbs could still be cheaper for me to send out. if preferred I can send out smaller ammounts.

Re: 125G Build
That would be a beautiful discus tank but they get so expensive, my LFS has a Pigeon Blood discus for $130 =O. I love the Cory idea though
