Be careful mixing new and old sand, especially if it is of different grades. We just upgraded and experienced some of this. The heavier/larger sand will separate from the smaller grade that falls to the bottom, giving it a striated look.
We used Fuji Pink Sugar fine live sand. It is bright white sand. We have a Diamond Goby who works hard and doesn't create a dust storm. We recommend 2 20 pound bags of live sand for your size tank (we were recommended 1 pound per gallon), depending on how deep you want your sand bed.
