I would start with about 30lbs of sand and go from there. I personally don't like to put a lot of substrate in tanks, so that is the route I would take.

I just set up my 29 gallon 2 days ago and I put in 40 pounds...which is perfect! Rule of thumb is about 2 pounds of substrate per 1 Us gallon. Here is a link with a couple pics of my tank. Don't mind the decor for now...I am getting bogwood and plants soon. -FHM
