How much do you want? Cindy pm'd me but I really would like black... Only thing ever have any problems with it being magnetic or whatever haha.

 

[sethsolomon]

Free just bring a container. Never tried putting a magnet to it.

we had black sand and it screwed with the MPs because it's magnetic. Took a little while, but it happened repeatedly once it started.

Jw the mp-10 wouldn't be to strong for a 8g tank? I was just thinking of upgrading the return pump and maybe a small koralia.

Just an example of our experience with black sand being magnetic.

Then I'll take you up on yours Cindy I'll stay away from that. But would the mp-10 be to strong or would it be okay? I want some sps in it but don't want to **** off all the softies.

Might be a tad overkill. but I dont know how much you can turn it down. I would shoot for about 350-550 gph for in tank circulation.

You can dial the MP down so much that I doubt it'd be too strong for an 8 gal tank

 

[JuanGutz]

Well I'll test it out and see how it goes! 8g Cadlights tank is waiting for me at home!! So excited!!

OK. I have some in the macro satellite tank, so you can come get it anytime. Just let me know when, so I'm home. Just make sure you rinse the daylights out of it before you use it.
