The sand was removed by myself because of the battle of dinos. And the long lasting GHA that would not just go away and I was tired. So I figured removing the sand may help with dino battle but may help with GHA. So I removed it half tank one day and two weeks later second half. I love the barebottom too I wish I did it from day one. Small complains. Flipping snails over is hard. They slide on she'll. I use a coral feeder. Try to keep hands out the tank. Also frags slide with flow. But I like it.looks like the rock has great coralinne growth. thats a great sign. and it looks like you took out the sand? what made you do that? i love the barebottom look. any negatives to removing the sand?
Turkey basting rocks every week or every other week before my wc. Man so much debris and poop comes out and settles (I never noticed when having sand) ahah
