Moving tank (changing substrate)

[ROYCEROLLS]

Hello, I have 50% gravel and 50% sand I know horrible I was dumb and new when setting this Aquarium up years ago… it has worked and thrived. I am moving and have to move the tank, I want to change the substate to all just sand. Recommendations on how or what to do???

Remove all of the old sand and use new one, bless you want to spend 2 hours rinsing it.

I always use Carib-Sea Aragonite special grade sand, because it’s fine enough for fish and snails to like it, but big enough that it won’t fly everywhere with the flow.
