Not sure where this should go so I'm putting it here.
At what point do you want to refrain from disturbing the sand bed? I know on a tank with a DSB it can be real bad. Mine is about 1 1/2" to 2 " deep and right at a year old. I've been messing with the top 1/3" - 1/2" when cleaning the tank. Should I stop doing this or can I go even deeper to get new sand to the top? (I have nasty looking sand and have yet to find an answer for what it is and what causing it.)
FWIW, My Maroon clown cleared a spot, down to clear glass, behind part of the rock structure. I watched it do part of it. It used its tail to blow it away. Any chunks that were there it moved by picking them up with its mouth! Crazy stuff for a clown.
