adding sand to a setup tank
Hey thanks Darren. You are always there when I need help, it rocks. I heard about that funnel trick, but the way I heard it was that you just poured it on the bottom, not "raised the pipe" which seems like an even better idea.
On the sand bed calc I think I was looking at 5inches sand bed depth which is great. This is going to take a long time to add this sand :( but oh well it will be worth it.
I also heard about you guys and that powerhead in the sandbed trick. I might try that.
I have 2 qestions:
1) With any "milky sand storm" that might happen, will it harm anything like my snails, hermits and fish? What about their breathing throught the gills?
2) Should I turn off most of my powerheads to decrease cloudyness?
Thanks
