How Much Sand Do I Need?

[Canadianeh]

I rather not over bought it, but how do I know how much sand I need for IM Fusion 40 tank?

Is there a rule of thumb that I can use, or is it simply just trying to estimate it yourself by eyeballing it.

Depends if you want a deep or shallow bed

would 20 lbs of Caribsea Arag alive special grade reef sand be enough for medium to deep bed?

What are the dimensions?

8lbs will cover a 12"x12" area to about 1" deep
