I currently have carib sea aragonite live sand, I was thinking of swapping it out and replace it with a fine black sand.

Was going to purchase this one above, or one similar.
I have a seen a number of FTS on the boards with the black/gray substrates. And they look very sharp, and i wanted to do the same.
I know by loosing the aragonite i loose the slight buffering aspects it has.
I have also heard some black sands tend to be magnetic, I would like to stay away from that type if possible, is anyone familiar with the one that i listed above?
Any pros/cons to this type substrate that i should take into consideration prior to making the switch.
Any brand you guys/gals recommend.
