get live sand as it will mature your tank quicker and easer to clean

if you get gravel to much algea on it on a short time

A. You dont clean live sand, so it wont be easier (anyway dry sand, you just need to rinse it, thats all)
B. Gravel or sand you will get algae on it.
C. Bagged live sand is not live sand, its just sand with a miniscule amount of life on it that is overcharged for what its worth.
