I could swear that I've read on here not to use any sand containing silica.
I bought 3 M colorquartz.

read the label on the 3m color quartz..... it has silica in it...... I used the same thing 3m color quartz and it worked great for me, just make sure its cleaned and your intakes are high enough off the ground
