Bigger sand?

[nintendee]

I understand that bigger sand is not recommended but i did it anyways i understand i will need to gravel vac a lot but am wondering if a sand sifting gobi would help me out a bit with this more course almost rock substrate and or would this be too big for snails to get across or even anemone I just wanna know how doomed I am I don’t know the exact size but i have a picture!!! please help thank you!!!! (This was taken while salt was mixing and dust it is crystal clear now, sorry)

Hi, what kind of sand is it. Do you know the grain size? From the photos I don’t get the sense that it is too big, but it’s difficult to tell.

Sand sifting gobies do require finer sand, but snails and other inverts should be fine.

If you don’t like it, Is there a reason why you don’t want to just change it out?

I had bigger sand in my tank (caribsea arag alive sand). Just get some cuc that can clean up your sandbed, and vacuum the sand during a water change.
