Caribsea Ocean Direct Oolite Live Sand - 40lb
Overview
Simply Natural - Enjoy this real Caribbean live sand in a breathable bag with no added chemicals or special processing.Simply Effective - Ocean Direct is different than all other live sand products on the market. This live sand utilizes patent pending Sea Breathe laser technology which preserves real live sand with its own original bacteria.
Every bag of Ocean Direct is alive and breathing with up to 1000 times more beneficial bacteria than other preservation methods. Every grain of Ocean Direct is coated with bacteria and encapsulated by capillary action in a thin film of real ocean water. The thin film is open to the atmosphere for unparalleled gas exchange. This results in high counts of natural and beneficial bacteria with no noxious buildup of metabolic by-products.Simply Perfect - Ocean direct supplies the perfect union of physics and biology!
Ocean Direct Oolite is known for its uniquely spherical uniform gradation. This ultra fine, creamy white substrate is a favorite of the cutting edge reef-keeper, and popular for shallow and deep sand beds alike.
Burrowing inverts, gill sifting fish, and soft bellied rays and sharks will especially appreciate the smooth, rounded grains.
Deep oolitic beds are renowned for their propensity to create a truly "living" sand bed by creating a haven for worms and other benthic invertebrates. This material is almost exclusively sub 1mm oolite, most of this will be less than 0.60mm in size.
