Magnetic? strange
I know there is a cichlid sand that is black and would look great in a reef tank
I am looking at using it myself

Magnetic? Used it in the past. Awesome stuff. Picked up 40 lbs in conyers and now to Duluth to puck up 40 more

The Nature's Ocean Bio-Activ Live Aragonite Black Beach Sand is the product I refer to.

Nothing wrong with it, I'm sure it works fine, but be careful using a magnetic algae cleaner on your glass. The wet side magnet can pick up granules and scratch the acrylic or glass.

I use Caribsea Hawaiian Black, but it definitely is coarser than the Nature's Ocean.
