Clean Up Crew

gnorts · 12/03/2008, 01:27 PM

So I have a fowlr tank with 2 clowns, snowflake eel and and bursa trigger and need to put some kind of clean up crew to keep the substrate clean and to get rid of food waste. what can I put in there that the eel and trigger wont bother. My other question is if I wanted to make a deeper sand bed would i have to drain my tank to add more sand or is it possible to shut the system off and dump it in and let it seddle out or is that not advice. Thanks

adding sand is easy .......pick a container place said sand in it......add water till full and then slowly submerge container to bottom when you get to where you want slowly remove sand......No cloud no dust
