proper way to wash sand?

tank o tang

Thread Lurker
Might be swapping my 180g to a different stand which means breaking down and rebuilding. I have about 2" sandbed, what would be the best way to clean the sand before putting it back in?
 
Not sure if this is the best way but I have had cyano issues and I will scope some of the sand out into a 5 gallon bucks and rinse it in some RO water and dump the water out seems like all the stuff floats to the water surface and you are left with just sand. at least this helped with my cyano issues as it is 90% gone
