I am currently upgrading my 120 gallon reef to a 180 gallon reef. I plan on moving everything (all livestock, rock, coral and marinepure blocks for bacteria) but I'm hung up on moving the sand. I currently have a 1 inch sandbed that I vacuum about once a month. This new setup will be mainly LPS and softies, with maybe a few SPS in the future.
I prefer the look of the sandbed, but understand there are some downsides with keeping one. Should I move the old sandbed into the new tank? Should I put new sand in the tank? Or should I go bare bottom?
Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!
