how thick is the sand bed?
I wish i could see how thick it is
It's a red sand, very fine... It's a test

I used 15 odd kgs of sand in my 7x2.5, maybe the density is quite different between the 2 as well I guess.

Holy sh*t I didn't realise API Aquaclear changes the water that much!
Geez that's not bad
Will aqua clear get rid of algae build up in Cannister Filter pipes without killing 3 - 4 cm juvies?

Nope, but you can use API Stress Zyme+ , it helps break down the sludge and any crap in the canister filters.
I was always sceptical (or skeptical?) about using this kind of products, but after using them - the pictures prove it - I think they really work and are worth it.
Just imagine how many water changes it would have taken to remove all that crap/dust from the tank. I couldn't believe what I was seeing this morning when I woke up!

Using floculants is just binding the smaller particles so they drop out of suspension and back onto the floor of the tank to be disturbed in the future.

Seachem Clarity with the above method of otto power head and filter wool works for me.

This sand is just so fine, seems like when it rubs itself creates more dust. But we will win this battle, I know it
