I don't understand why you guys like live used sand. Besides the fact is has some bacteria in it, that may go ballistic on you, why do you do it?
Please explain ...
I'm trying to understand why you want to put sand in your tank that is going to spike and cause algae, ammonia and so on.
Do you feel it speeds up the cycle or something?
