Hi guys/gals, I had shut down my 20 gallon a while ago, something like 6 months ago.
Here's the thing: I never totaly cleaned it out completely. I took all the corals, fish, lr and about 90% of the water out, but never removed all of the water or sand. No it doesn't stinck, if it did I definitely would have made the time to clean it out.:tongue1:
I plan to set it back up temporarily as an acclimation tank. Here's my ?. Do I wash out the sand with tap water? Or do you think that the sand still has living critters in it, and (A) I should just add new prepared water, or clean it with prepared water?
Your responces will be greatly appreciated.
