Just a question for all of you. Im setting up a 29 gallon fuge with a base of 24 by 16. Im looking into miracle mud and was wondering how much to use? Do I mix it with sand or whats the deal? Thanks all.

Have you purchased the Miracle Mud yet?

Here's some informative reading you should do, if you haven't already:

It looks as if the recent analysis supports previous analyses. IOW modern snakeoil. Miracles claimed without much in the way of supporting research. :rolleyes:

I think some Germans did some test on it when it came out. Their resulting finds put the whole idea beyond speculation that the stuff was just... was just dirt! Namely laterite and silica.

So if Miracle Mud is "dirt" then what do I put in the bottom of my fuge? Ive got the option of a dsb but what else is there?

I never understood the reasoning behind a DSB in a fuge. Unless your fuge is HUUUGE, you're probably gonna get minimal results from a DSB. IMO, you're probably best off getting a MM knockoff like the ones CaribSea or Kent are marketing and working with that. Then again, no one ever said fine grain aragonite was any worse.
