I added sand to replace my CC about 2 1/2 weeks ago. I have not done any siphoning or stiring of the sand. After starting a new tank, I wanted to put in a little of my 2 1/2 week old seeded sand to the new tank to get it going with growth. When I scooped up a layer of the seeded sand, the blue sand/sewage smell emerged from underneath. Is this normal? I am now fearing I have disturbed some toxic chemicals to my established tank. I would love any advice on this.
