Today let's talk about a subject that has never been touched on in the aquarium hobby. Clean sand! HA!
If you're like me you love the look of sand in your aquarium. Clean sand, not dirty sand! If you have sand or have had sand you know that it can get dirty pretty quick and at times seems like an impossible task to always keep it clean. Can it stay clean with minimal maintenance? Can it be sustained? I know there have been times when I didn't touch my sand bed and it stayed very clean for long periods of times and then BAM it went down the drain and it became seemingly impossible to keep clean again. Let's talk about that today!
1. Is having a consistent clean sand bed something that is sustainable?
2. How do you keep your sand bed clean? What does your maintenance look like?
3. Any tips and tricks to keeping your sand clean?
