JT, I photographed an aiptasia in my tank, too, even though they're so evil, they're kind of neat if you only have a couple (although they're bound to become more than a couple if left alone).

Ya They Are Kinda Neat, But After I found Out What It Was, It Got A Squirt Of Water That Was Over 200'F, And It Packed Up And Left For Good

I got 100lbs of live rock from Gulf View.
Dale was a pleasure to work with and he sent exactly the sizes I requested. Needless to say, it was about the best live rock I ever got.

I'll be placing another order soon.

As for the live sand.
I got 10lbs from Gulf View as a seed. I like to get small amounts from lots of places. Anyway, it was like crushed coral in J.T.s picture. Had lots of life but I didn't care for how it looked with my Southdown DSB.

HEY JT

I am getting some of that Fiji sand shipped to me. I got 46 pounds for $5. This shipping was high, but still cheaper than anywhere else. I hope I like it as much as you do.

Southdown is very very fine sand, and basically looks like fine fine silt. Another way to describe it is that it looks like powder.

The Live Sand I Got From Golf View Was A Little On The Course Side, I Don't Think It Would Make A Good Looking DSB, Their Were Lots Of Shells And Very Course Grains In It. I Like The Fiji Sand I Got On Ebay For $25 For 6olbs, Picked Up Localy(Awsome Deal), It Makes The Contrast Look Better For The Live Rock. I Want To See What a Southdown DSB Looks Like For Future Refrence. Any Pics Would Be Great!!
