I made the switch from CC to sand.....it was a pretty smooth transition cuz i kept all my old water. I forget who it was at the time they gave me really good advice.. Maybe you could start a new thread about that. I had no problems no casualties or anything, and now my tank is much more beautiful and much easier to take care of cleaning wise.
the best of luck!
