I would like to hear from the old timers here, thoughts on the best, healthiest sand bed....
My CUC don't stir up much so I bought a Pink spotted Goby. It spit sand at me in the LFS but never touches the sand now.
In my previous tanks I didn't stir the sand much and had tons of Pods and could see bristle worms in the sand and rocks when I fed. I had great growth and no algae issues.
Since I set up this 75 I've got more open sand bed area and have kept it stirred and super clean but I don't seem to have as many pods, worms, ....
Is is good to stir up the entire available area of sand bed every other week when doing a water change?
Thanks
