I've been thinking of converting my gravel 36gal bowfront to a sand tank any suggestions or should I just scoop the gravel out and and put the washed sand in while the fish are still in it or do I net out the fish first

I would probably take the fish out and put them in a spare tank.
 
one other thing to consider is if your doing your weekly siphoning your gravel, sand can be a problem , because you can suck some of the sand out with the waste, but still is a good idea,
