dsbs are imo awesome. anerobic bacteria contained in there feeds of nitrates which is great because not only does the sand look nice, you get the extra added bonus of extra system stability. at a price that nobody can complain about. 6 years ago when I started my tank i put in an oolitic dsb. its always white and has never caused me any issues. by taking a look at how mother nature sets up her oceans and if we follow her formula making a strong stable aquarium environment is an easy process. at the end of the day there are several different opinions, not one of them is all wrong or right. its a matter of your own personal preferance for your own tank.
