EC,

Very nice setup.

How much sand you use to fill up the 5ft and what type of sand?

Looks much better than coral sand...

Cool....the way Tang setups should go...

I used to use fine sand but recently switched to try out gravel. Effect's not that great....still prefer fine sand...maybe will try to change back
