Hey! Its been a long time since I've set up a new tank.
I filled my tank with water yesterday evening and added the salt.
Then, i very briefly rinsed the new aragonite sand that I purchased (i didn't rinse it thoroughly, just one quick lazy rinse with RO water). I dumped the sand in my tank shortly after. Now, as expected, there is a big milky sand cloud in my tank and its still there now nearly 20 hours later.
I read somewhere that to help clear up the sand storm that i should add LR. True or false? I also sprinkled some "live sand" from my old tank (and still running) this morning.
Should i add the LR even though my water still looks like diluted skim milk?
Powerhead on or off?
