    I'm an hour west of Toronto, in a city called Guelph. Thank you everybody for the warm welcome!

    I like that black sand as well, the problem I do struggle with it is that I'm constantly trying to keep it clean, it shows a lot more than white sand ever would even with a CUC I still have to give them a hand! It really gives a beautiful contrast to colourful corals.

    I remember a member on here (Daniel) mentioning that black sand was somewhat difficult to keep clean. I've never had it but have always loved the look of it.

    The whole reason why I put it in the 18g and not the 75. It would be never ending trying to keep it clean in anything other than a nano. I do love what contrast it gives corals, so for me it is worth it in a smaller footprint

    2 beautiful setups! I'm loving the 75g. I wanted black sand myself but heard terrible reviews when looking into it and how easily it scratches glass and acrylic. Looks great though.
