Great brand of sand. Looks beautiful in my tank and doesn’t get kicked up easily when there is high flow

Yes, I recommend this product.

Package said do not rinse due to live bacteria. So I didn't rinse and wow did it cloud my water, for days! Plus the gravel size was very inconsistent. The only reason I didn't give it one star is because the material was authentic ocean material.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Would this work as crushed coral In a brackish water tank or would you recommend something else

It should work fine. A similar option that isn't "alive" and costs less per pound is the Coraline Gravel https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/fish/fish-tank-sand-gravel-substrate/fish-tank-marine-substrates/caribsea-coraline-aquarium-gravel
