Southdown sand?

[HIM_Shepherd]

I am just getting back into the hobby (obsession??) after a several years break. I am setting up a 125, and am looking for new/previously new Southdown sand. I know when I was getting out years ago, Southdown was hard to find, and I can imagine it is even worse now. Does anyone have a line on some, or possibly some just setting around they would like to part with? As my income status has changed dramatically, I am trying to get this started as fiscally responsibly as possible. Please let me know if this is a possibility, or if I'm going to have to bite the bullet and go with something else. I am located near Champaign/Urbana, but don't mind travelling.

TIA

Bill

Not southdown, but I have 2 5gal buckets full of used reef sand you can have FREE if you want to make the trip to Wonder Lake 60097. Will need to be rinsed. I also have enough rock available to fill a 125g, was once live rock that was dried out $250 takes all.

Thanks for the response, ya. If you're not in a hurry, I will wait a little bit and see if someone a bit closer responds. I will not need anymore dry rock. I have already gotten quite a bit locally. Do you have a guesstimate on the weight of the sand you have?
