Gday,

Chasing some Tahitian Moon sand ( Fine black substrate ) if anyone has any...

Enough to cover a thin layer on a 4ft x 20inch

Cheers,

Sorry dragonfish, I bought the last 3 bags of Krystal Black Sand from Aquotix on Sunday..... my bad!
Speak to Oli though, he said they're organising another shipment soon
It's really good looking stuff, and a mother load cheaper than Tahitian Moon. I suggest buying what Ice has left though

Vebas also stock tms, both tms and Krystal black are made from glass/silica and are quite sharp.

Gosnells aquariums also sell a similar sand to kbs but it's slightly finer and from memory 20kg was $50.

Tms is the finest, followed by the gosnells stuff followed by kbs which seems to have quite large particles.

I would not keep corys or loaches on these particular sands as I feel they are too sharp for burrowing type floor dwellers.
