Post by snoopdog »

I know i need several bags of southdown and i am sure others do to. Have we got a source for this stuff ? Also what about crushed coral ?

I would like to "save back" about four bags (200lbs). Never know when I'm gonna upgrade, and having sand handy is a good thing. The guy with the 180 gallon tank over in Destin has 1,000 lbs. of Southdown for $175, let's chip in and get it; I'll volunteer to make the drive and get it, if enough people chip in.

P.S., Kevin, if you guys are still going to Destin to look at that guy's tank, I can take you in the explorer and trailer and haul tank and sand all back at one time. The explorer has towing package & v8.

You DO know that you can drive over to Jacksonville and load up a truckload of Southdown for like $50? Yes, they are supplied from two locations in FL, there's a thread in ReefCentral or RAG about it.

I can get any kind of crushed coral or substrate you want. Southdown I can get but I have to buy a pallet. The guy in Destin may be your best bet. As for other substrates, I can order anything for you wholesale. Bring your list and I will look up prices on Saturday.

Let me know!
