Good luck. You're probably right that you don't have much to lose at this point. Hopefully the removal will help turn things round for you.

I wouldn't do it that way. Exposing deeper layers is the opposite of what you want to do. When I remove a sand bed I remove the entire depth of sand from say 1/4 of the tank, then replace that area with new sand, then next week remove the next 1/4 and replace, and so on.
