Carib Sea Reef Select

[mcoomer]

Do you folks have some of this? Last time I checked you had Special Grade Reef but according to Carib Sea it isn't burrower friendly and I'd like to get a Leopard Wrasse. Please let me know and what it would cost for two large bags.

Thanks,
Mike

Do you mean the Aragamax Select? Its the only "select" that I can find on their website. If so, then yes, we have 3 30lb bags of it, and they are 49.99ea(we don't have a Special Grade CaribSea?). We also have CaribSea's Ocean Direct live sand, original grade, which is what we use in all of our tanks here in the store. We have a bunch of 40lb bags of that, at $59.99ea.... Both the Aragamax Select and Ocean Direct sand are reef sifter/dweller friendly.

The stuff I'm looking for in on the Carib Sea Dry Aragonite product page. Look at the product all the way to the right. Funny thing is, they've just changed their website. This morning they had rows that labeled the products as compatible or not for DSB, plenum, sand sifter, burrowers, etc. and now that information has been removed. Anyway, I would like to get some of that Super Reef because it was previously labeled as safe for burrowers (I want a Leopard Wrasse) and it's got a larger particle size than the Argamax Select that I'm using now. I've got 3 Tunze 6105's and a MP40W in the tank now and it would be nice to cut down on the sandstorms.

Thanks,
Mike

Well, I can tell you the Aragamax Select or the Ocean Direct original(which is what we use in all of the tanks here, including the fish tanks with any leopard wrasses. They burrow in it just fine) would both be fine for a leopard wrasse. We do not have the Super Reef, but the grain size is almost identical between the Select and Super Reef. The Select is just more filtered and doesn't have large shell pieces included. However the Ocean Direct Original is probably the most like the Super Reef, as it has all different grain sizes and has big shell pieces, etc included.
