Just saw this post and agree with everyone, Do Not Reuse the sand.
I did this and only took some of the sand and had nothing but problems for at least a year.
Matt,
Been banging my head against wall for a few weeks now as to why this was happening so tracked all my changes the past few months and this was the biggest.
I pulled what I could out and looks much better. There was a bunch of crap on this long HA so am sure that didn't help.
I pulled few rocks out today and didn't realize the back glass has Hair algae. I scraped what I could but am baffled why this happened. My only thought here I have switched to the IO Gel food seaweed, cyclopeze and brine shrimp. Are these foods high in phosphates?
Either way I will go back to...
