Taking out the rocks, and replacing it with sand...with fish in would be a big no-no wouldn't it? Basically will need a cycle just like a Salt tank? |
ummm if you have other filtration it shouldnt be a problem, is your rock set up as an undergravel filter? if so just do 1/2 of the tank and leave it for a week or so, we used the playsand from homedespot, very very cheap and dirty but nice when all washed up, this tank is an 80gal something 5' long, cichlids are algae eaters so they just love coated rock
