Coral gravel or live sand bed?
I was told today my a lfs that i should get rid of my coral gravel and replace it with some sand, as it wouldnt accumulate the detrious as much and lead to better water quality. Do you think this is true?
The gravel i have is TMC gravel of various sizes: fine, medium and coarse.
If i was to replace it i was thinking of getting some live sand from STM:
but i wasnt sure between the STM aquacultured live sand or the ultra fine marine white?

If you were to change over and put new sand in,how would you put it in so that it didnt cloud the water column too much?
