Why would you think my name is Quinn? I'm not offended just curious.

Well the saga continues, my smelly water was black with a thick scum layer on top today and smelled really bad. I chose to scrub the rock and throw the water out. The rock is now back in the tank and the sand bed is turning black!! I have powerheads and a heater in place, I am trying to mix up the water to add enough to the tank so I can start the protien skimmer taht is in the sump going but it will probably be two more days. The sand bed appears to be alive as I now have hundreds of red worms crawling out of the sand and up the glass. WTH are they? Good/bad? they are long and skinny and about 1" long. I am soooo fustrated with the tank, if I hadn't done it in memory of my Dad I would probably be giving it up, but I know it can be beautiful again, I am tired of being a so so fish mummy.
