just do your best and make sure you have a good clean up crew. Get some nass snails and or a diamond goby. they will keep the top layer of sand clean.

what do you mean there is no room to suck it out? can i see a pic of your tank? is it like filled with live rock?

 

[corallover23]

yes its full of live rock! i had like 4 xxxl pices that i laid down first then 15-20 lb rocks then smaller and smaller i saved like 5 inches from the top so shrimp couldnt walk out of the tank. no pics till complete
