    I added another 20lbs of sand to my tank and it is much brighter now. What do you all think?

    What it looked like before.

    I can get it ordered, but id rather not pay shipping on a 40lb bag of sand... seems pointless but my LFS said when he does his next order he'll order some but who knows when thats going to be :confused:
