Howdy do!
My Southdown sand is about 2 years old and I have about 50# in my 95. The other day I was using a turkey baster to blow my rocks and I sucked up some sand. I knew there was detritus built up and when I smelled it I coud tell that some of the sand has become anaerobic maybe anoxic.
I would like to remove most of my sand maybe 40# and reseed with new sand but am concerned over how to do this without releasing hydrogen sulfide or something else. Any ideas?
For the last 2 days I have been removing a 16 oz. dixie cup worth of sand and water and just trashing it. Is this a good idea or am I setting myself up for a disaster?
