Worked and looked pretty good. Did collect detritus but could be sucked out during water changes.
Ot at least I think it did.  Was a long time ago. |
Now this actually looks good. For me i'm trying to create my own little piece of the ocean in my home and a with out sand it just takes away from the whole look. It looks bad IMO. I only have a 144G and run a Barracuda pump and have 2 MP40s and a MP10 all set at 80% on NTM and have sugar sand. No sand storms and even have a sand sifting goby. With proper placement of rock and the powerheads nobody should be having sand floating around in their tank.
