Ne0eN July 18, 2005 Share July 18, 2005 Any Home Depot will carry 35Gal round trash bins that are both inexpensive and easy to store. I believe I bought them a while back for less than $12 including the lid. -Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelg July 19, 2005 Share July 19, 2005 As far as southdown- the reef tank can get it in if they don't have it on hand. I found the same stuff under another name at walmart up here in Albany (from thread on RC). Some K-Marts have it evidently as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RastaMan July 19, 2005 Share July 19, 2005 Grim at the Reef Tank said they cannot get Southdown, and that Southdown (Old Castle) is no longer being manufactured. They were getting it from a wholesaeller that had left over stock Rick As far as southdown- the reef tank can get it in if they don't have it on hand.

Guest tburrs July 26, 2005 Share July 26, 2005 I don't recall what was on the bag, but they have two types. You want the WHITE play sand packaged by Old Castle. When I was there a month ago they had an entire pallet. It's outside between the store entrace and the big garage door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emissary July 26, 2005 Share July 26, 2005 Yo; I'm that guy you were talking to at dhoch's tank tour. Take a peek at steve outlaw's "going out of the hobby" post. He's got sand in his 120. Tell him you're needy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
