lightningstrike Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 it doesnt matter much for FOWLR. but grade 0 or 1 will be ok. best go bare-bottom. cleaner and easier to maintain.

Sponsor eaquarist Posted September 14, 2004 Sponsor Share Posted September 14, 2004 3 or 1 would be better if you are keeping fowlr as 0 would cause certain amount of sand storm if you have any gobies or fishes that tend to stir up sand...

SRC Member jesperlam Posted September 14, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted September 14, 2004 If u intending to keep LS that have something to do with the sandbed, then better to have some sand or else like what some bro said, go bare bottom.
