Talk to user "Acrylics" on RC. I'd trust whatever he suggests and I highly doubt he'd roll with the 1/2" in your case. He's the guy behind Envision Acrylics, is insanely knowledgeable in matters like this AND built Brad's tank if I recall correctly.

Thanks Brett, didn't know that. (the decision's been made, but there must be a formula that is used to calculate these things!)

I've ordered the sand and salt:

Sand
800 lbs Sugar size
150 lbs Select size
40 lbs Special grade

Salt
Seachem Salinity (Aquavitro) 8 pails

It should all be ready for me to pick up around Oct. 20.
