Default Another Sand Question...
Can I take sand from my established tank and move it into my tank that has a bare bottom and is full of corals/fish?

If I can do I need to rinse it tons or ????

Not really sure what to do...

I have done this in the past. I rinsed really well.

Lots of phosphate bound up in an old sand bed, especially if it is deep. New sand looks soooo nice.
