    I'm moving my tank in 2 weeks and need to know what type of sand to use. I think I'm currently using aragonite.
    So is fine sand a better choice?

    It depends on what you want to get out of it. Do you have a lot of critters that burrow into the sand? Powerheads that could blow it around? Do you want to fret with blowing already-blown sand that's now on your corals?

    it is all a matter of preference. It should all be arogonite, just different sizes is all

    No I don't have anything that lives in the sand and so it seems like I'll stick with what I have

    Also anybody have any advice of moving a tank successfully without losing any corals or fish?
