Ugh! Ordered the wrong stuff

[Fishingandreefing]

Looks like my build will take forever lol. After researching and though I found the right sand (Caribsea Aragonite Special grade). It was delivered today but that’s not what I wanted. (Will be keeping a goby)

Picture 1 - 2: what I ordered.

Picture 3 - 4 what I want!

Picture 5: size chart

Based on Caribsea Aragonite chart, it looks like it’s either “Aragamax sugar size sand or Aragamax Select”.

please look at the chart, thx

My favorite sand is the special grade. Anything smaller and it is constantly getting blown around and shifting around the tank. My Wrasses, sand sifting gobies, anemones, etc, do great in the special grade sand as well.

Photos didn’t work

I have special grade, but not a sifting goby. The pistol shrimp likes it though

I think I found myself an answer, it’s the caribsea fiji pink! Should have ordered the special grade from petco at least I can return it, lesson learned lol.

I used the Red Sea reef pink when I started and it looks really close to your pictures 3 and 4. My Diamond goby sifts through it without issues and it doesnt kick up a sandstorm when my streamers are going.
Older pic of when the sand was new.

I really want to buy at petsmart, worse case I can return them. There are only two that is close to what I want. It’s the fiji pink or the Araga live.

I have seen video that the fiji pink but not the araga live so I will go with the fiji
