Sandbed

[Bigshow]

I recently just moved my 120 gallon to my new house. It has been running for 3 months now and everything is doing great. However, I added new sand but I didnt add enough would it be possible to just add more by just dropping it in or is there a trick to it?

Theres a trick...

Wash the sand thoroughly, place it in a gallon ziplock.
Zip it up (after you squeeze air out).

Place in tank upside down and unzip. The air lifts the bag, water flows in as sand falls and in doing so drives yhe last of the dust into the bag. Remove bag. The tank shouldnt cloud up.

Let it sit a day and thrn spread it out.
