I may have gone and done it. I started to scoop out a real bad patch of the gunk on my sand bed with a net. When I did I plopped it down into a bucket and it STANK! Very sulfur smelling. I immediately stopped, and kicked on the Carbon reactor. Fish, at the moment seem fine and there were two live snails in the scoop I took out. (I put them in the sump)
Did I just nuke my tank with a delayed reaction? I wasn't expecting this. It has never smelled when I pulled out the gunk and sand before.
