tygger September 15, 2004 Share September 15, 2004 Since Im getting closer to finishing my tank, I'll need to buy some sand soon. The reeftank carries playsand for $9/bag... is this a good price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatortailale September 15, 2004 Share September 15, 2004 considering Home Depot in this area no longer stocks Southdown sand, & the sand TRT is stocking is same as southdown, I would say yes. Just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mikesroth September 15, 2004 Share September 15, 2004 I am cheap, so I would say no, as I found Not Southdown, not Old Kastle, but the 3rd brand name they use, for $4 at my local Ace Hardware. They had been carrying some other brand, but we saw it there this past weekend. Now that said, if you aren't buying a huge amount then TRT price isn't so bad.

xeon September 15, 2004 Share September 15, 2004 It's about double what you could buy it for at Home Depot since it disappeared locally. At $9 for a 50lb. bag it is still dirt cheap compared to sand sold in the hobby. The comparable sand (Caribsea) sold in the hobby ranges from ~ $35 to $40. On top of that it comes in 30 lb. bags. I saw someone mention that it was available in PA area HD's still. If someone up in that area were able to get some and bring it to the meeting... I imagine they would not have any trouble getting rid of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
