Live sand

[Lonely reefer's]

Hello
Mr Randy H
How long can I keep the live sand in the bag after it open?
Thanks you in advance

Well, the bacteria will last for a while, but there will be more and more die off. Don't let it dry out. I don't think openning it particularly changes the lifespan of bacteria in the sand.
