ok so we're going to be moving to a new apartment and when we make the move we wanted to make a switch in sand beds. i forgot exactly what we're using right now but its a very thick kinda coarse sand mixed with real powdery sand. every time we touch the bottom we have a mini cloud, and god forbid we have a diamond goby! we actually had to donate him to my girlfriend's mom because he was creating a sandstorm. she has a fine sand, i think its sugar grade, and he doesn't create anywhere near a mess in her tank, and still does the same amount of work. so here are the big questions...
1) what kind of sand should i use? we want very white sand, and a finer sand with less chunky stuff in it.
2) how would this effect our cycling of the tank?
Question #2 is the most important because we only have one tank and have to get the corals back in there by the end of the day. We have a 37g Tall, and we're filling 4-6 6-gallon jugs with our water from the tank, then filling it back up probably with about 30g of our original water and the rest will be freshly mixed salt water. We have about 50-55lbs of live rock, and lots of tiny frags, a gbta, false perc, lawnmower, yellow watchman, etc. any ideas & advice would be much appreciated! any other info needed please lmk. thanks!
