CaribSea Arag-Alive! Special Grade Reef Sand – 20 lbs


Bring your reef tank to life with CaribSea Arag-Alive! Special Grade Reef Sand, a premium substrate designed to jumpstart biological filtration and enhance your aquarium’s natural look. Pre-seeded with millions of live beneficial bacteria, this sand helps establish your tank faster by supporting a stable nitrogen cycle from day one.


Key Benefits:

  • Pre-Seeded with Live Bacteria
    Accelerates biological filtration and shortens the tank cycling process - perfect for new reef setups.
  • Optimal Grain Size (1.0 - 2.0 mm)
    Coarse enough to reduce detritus buildup while still promoting strong water flow and preventing compaction - ideal for reef-safe bottom dwellers.
  • 100% Natural Aragonite
    Rich in calcium and trace elements to support healthy pH and overall coral vitality.
  • No Rinsing Required
    Packaged wet and ready to use straight out of the bag - clouds clear quickly for instant visual clarity.
  • Flexible for Shallow or Deep Beds
    Versatile enough for use in standard substrates, deep sand beds, or plenum systems. Functions as a powerful denitrator in deeper applications.


Whether you're starting a new system or upgrading your substrate, CaribSea’s Special Grade Arag-Alive! Sand delivers both form & function - supporting your reef’s biology while adding a clean, natural aesthetic.
