Fish Fanatic
A couple of questions on substrate.
I currently have gravel and would like to change it to sand (better for the bottom dwellers that I seem to like a lot, plus I believe better for planting?) is there a relatively simple way to change it or is it a full empty etc?
If it is a full empty etc then what is the best thing to do with the fish? Put them in the bath with the current tank water, maybe put in one of the filters too? I would only want to do this if I can get it done in less than a day (save stress on the fish) is this possible?
What would the experienced members think of this?
Also I have an Eheim gravel cleaner, are they OK with sand? I have to admit it is MILES better than the standard one I bought at first.
