Fish Fanatic
Ok, so I think I am doing the right thing to put sand in my corys tank - well, I am in a panic!!!
I took out 90% of my tanks water, got rid of my stones, put sand (play sand I may add, I read on here that it is acceptable), and put half of the tanks water back into the tank. THE WATER IS LIKE A BROWN MUD!!! Did I need to wash this sand before I put it in, or will it eventually settle? All my poor fishies are stuck in a pail, I don't want to leave them in there forever...AND I have wasted over half of my tanks water.
HELP!
