Hi, two weeks ago I moved my 55g FO tank. There was 3-4” HD sand in the tank, and taking out the sand stirred up a lot of crud etc. I didn’t want to subject my fish to that (my Threadfin Butterfly seems to be quite sensitive to water quality), so after setting up the tank in the new home, I put the fish and rocks in the tank without the sand. I put the 100 lbs sand in a tub with a powerhead and heater. I was going to add the sand little by little over time, but I found that the tank was not leveled, and I have to empty it this weekend to level it. Now that the sand has been in the tub for 2 weeks, my question is, is this a good time to put them all back to the tank, instead of adding them bit by bit? (I will need to take the fish out anyway, so I could put the sand it, add water, let sit for a few hours to clear up) Would there still be anything in the stirred up sand that could harm the fish?
Thanks!
