swordfish Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 Well, like the heading says, about how many pounds of aragonite am I going to need? I have sand in my other tank so I am unfamiliar with aragonite requirements and haven't had to buy it before. This is a standard-dimension ten gallon tank. Thanks. Jeff Link to comment
dreamweaver_gcotb Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 Depending on how deep you want your sand, I'd say between 10-15 pounds. Link to comment
swordfish Posted August 9, 2003 Author Share Posted August 9, 2003 How deep should the aragonite bed be then? Jeff Link to comment
Sahin Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 I would say go for about 3-4 inches. I guess you would need about 15-20 lbs for that. Should be fine IMO Link to comment
SeaMountain Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 I used 20 lbs of Arag-Alive in a 10g. It gave me about 2" of depth. You can see for yourself by hitting the WWW button below if you'd like. Link to comment
dreamweaver_gcotb Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 For my personal taste, 3-4 inches of sand takes up too much room in a 10g tank. Link to comment
