Funny how they say:

"Not suitable for aquarium systems and traction purposes."

C.Y.A. i guess..?

Yup E-mail Penman and see if he has anymore. I bought 8 bags and have 4 in the tank right now. I may sell a few bags but I am not sure just yet.

There's a place in Salem NH that stocks it year round. Apparently, Mike Roby told him there was a market for the stuff and he listened. I believe it is an Agway store just a bit north of Route 28 (past the mall). It's on the left hand side. I would call first.

Thanks KAS, ill have to look into it.

It's called "Dodge Grain". It's an Agway store.

 

[KAS]

Yup. That's it. Thanks Nate.

New, here. Yeah, hi.

Anyway, enough of that. I've had a 110 gallon sitting empty looking for sand. Has anyone confirmed that this Agway store has Tropical Play Sand?

I bought 180 pounds of Global Stone Play Sand. It looks much nicer than the quickrete but it is silica based. I was finally just ready to throw this stuff in and finally start this thing up this weekend, but I'll try Agway tomorrow. If only I checked this site an hour ago before they closed for the day.

I believe there is a confirmed sighting in the area just two days ago:

You guys should go bare bottom. I did. It's good!

I'm going sumpless in a 110 High tank. I need all the bio filtration help that I can get. No sump and only running a Remora Pro hang on.
