When I did a tank switch out three months ago I bagged all my sand in Ziploc vegetable bags. Those are the ones with the tiny holes in them. Held all the bags in holding tanks along with the Live Rock. The bags were in the holding tanks for about 10 days. Seemed to work out okay, but I do have a bit of a cyano problem right now. I'm not sure if that's related.

HTH and cheers,
