For anyone who's never done this.....swapping sand ain't easy. I did it in two batches, so as not to mess with my biological filter too much.
My Blue Spot was NOT happy about his home being removed. But look at all the stuff he'd collected under there! Little packrat, that fish. I found a couple zoa frags that had "disappeared" over time down there in his hole.
It was cloudy for a while. Did the other side 1 or 2 weeks later.
But boy, what a difference the sand color makes against the corals.
And when it was all done, it was like night and day.
