tiny problems


i noticed a lot of tiny air bubbles in my water, and i was trying for days to figure out what was going on. I now know. The sandbed has been pretty active with the currents and worms, and the sugar sized layer has worked itself to the top....its not air bubbles floating around, its a bunch of sand.

I suppose I'm going to get some coarse crushed coral or something to put on top to keep the sand down...

i have 12 scarlets, 20 astreas, 2 tiger tails, 2 brittle stars, and 2 peppermint shrimp on the way as soon as i make the call!

Sand is blowing in your tank? maybe you have a powerhead positioned too low? I wouldn't get a courser substrate than you have now.
