That's correct. Silica sand IS largely inert, since glass IS basically
silica, and if silica sand would wreak havoc to a tank's parameters, so
would the tank itself. The bacteria and mini-critters in a silica sand bed
couldn't care less about what the composition is, as long as its fine. >>
Again, I have to accept this since I ran a coral reef for many years...and
this was WAY before there were all these new things on the market...I was
only using a canister for filtration as well...had a LOT of live rock,
corals, anonomes, some fish in a 125 gallon and all did very well for many
years. Silica is inert...therefore should not cause a problem. Just my
findings.
