Fiji pink sand with high flow

Good chance of it happening. I mixed some with special grade in my tank and it still drifted out of the center where the flow is high.
 
Thank you. Yeah I made the choice yesterday to go with special grade to avoid the issue. Since I’m getting all very established rock (2 year+ with sponge softie life etc) soon I chose dry that I will rinse. I don’t think it should be an issue to go with no bacteria in the sand? Or will it spike the live rock?
 
The bacteria from the live rock should make its way to the sand. But, it wouldn’t hurt to buy some beneficial bacteria to help expedite the process and cycle the tank.
