Fish Crazy
Hi everyone.
I was hoping to see if anyone could tell me how i can test and see if the sand i am going to use in my tank is in fact coral sand or the like (ones that buffer your water to high pH levels- i only know of coral sand that does this).
Im hoping its not coral sand but I have some in my very little 5 gal tank and the pH is around 8.0 whereas the water straight from the tap is around 7.5. So maybe the sand brought the ph in that tank up?
plus i couldnt find any pix online that shows me wot coral sand looks like....so i really need to experiment.
thx
