I want to switch from gravel to fine sand substrate, I just have a few questions:
[a] Should I change 100% of the water or use half of it?
Are there any other things I should change, like the Powerhead pump that I am currently using?
[c] How many minutes/hours/days/weeks() should I wait until I can put my fishies back in?
[d] What are the advantages/disadvantages of having sand substrate?
[e] What would be the tools needed for the cleaning it, and how?
[f] How much sand do I need to put in? (How deep should it be?)
[g] Any other advice would be very much appreciated... :]
Note: I have a Senegal Bichir and a Black Ghost Knife Fish, and have read that they'd prefer a sandy substrate.
