My new 150

[mrme123]

I am still in the process of switching over from my 55 to my 150. I have a sand bed instead of crushed coral. I was just woundering, do i vacum my sand bed just like I did my crushed coral? if not what do I do to clean it?

What kind of setup is it? Reef or FO? I have Crushed Coral in my aggressive FO set up specifically because I can't have a CUC to keep the sandbed looking nice....Guess what I am saying if you have a reef, you should have a nice CUC to keep it looking good and won't need to vacuum which is difficult with fine sand without losing a lot everytime. CC is no problem to vacuum.

Sorry, CUC is for Clean Up Crew as in snails, crabs and so on that keep the tank clean, not a Sea Cucumber.
