I use 3MCQ - the only draw-back is is that when I first set-up my tank I was using a magnetic algae scraper and if any sand got in the scraper, it would scratch the glass. &%&&##$!!!

The sand looks good right after you clean it. I clean my tank and do 50% water changers weekly and %90 of the time my tank looks like crap. Fish **** might as well have a neon sign pointing down on it. If you ever get diatoms, even in small amounts your sand will look bad.

ditto for me on both of those...and that's with 3MCQ, so don't expect the problem to go away
