    How much LS should i use in a 75G reef tank. What are the benefits of more versus less?

    About 75lbs. You want about an inch covering the bottom... at least that's a popular option.

    another imput.

    The way my company does sandbeds is 3 to 4 inch min, taking in consideration of tank size. We build a lot of tanks and service them as well and it seems to be doing the trick.
