Sand Question??

[toyencounters]

My sand use to brown up about every 3-4 days before stirring now it browns up a few hours after I stir it everyday? I do water changes on a regular bases and my Parameters are in check!

Sounds like diatoms. Parameters are in check because the diatoms are sucking up the excess nutrients.

How deep is the sand bed? I'd only stir it if it was rather shallow.

Try a conch snail... they work well keeping the sand clean for me.
