I'm Leaking!!!!!!

[Jenndarlin]

I was just talking with my friend from OA about the sand. She suggested that I ditch the Sand and get New Sand. I definately wanted to keep the sand as I have alot of snails and stars & "sand dwelling" creatures and I like the look of Sand.

It is currently about 2-3 inches deep in the whole tank but I had a Zino problem a few weeks ago so someone suggested i ditch it then but I used a strainer instead and tried to get as much of it as I could. I can move my light and prop it on top of the "fish pond" for the corals. Pumps arn't a problem as I have 4 maxi jet 1200's. I'll move the thermometer over. I've never had to catch any of my fish though?? Should I remove the rocks 1st so there is less hiding spaces. I don't want to traumatize them any more than necessary.

Do u think I should ditch the sand and get new. i thought that the sand was an important part of the biological filtration??

Thanx
