    I'm going to start to make the switch here in the next hour or so from CC to a DSB I have 2 tanks set up one for my fish and inverts and the other for my corals, I will be taking out the fish and coral along with 30g of water to eliminate the about of nasties in the water. keeping the LR in and just going to maneuver it around while I am working.

    Wish me Luck!!!

    Update for you guys! I got all the CC out of the tank and in holding containers, and 80lbs of sand in the tank, it is still super cloudy so I am waiting it out and hoping it clears up soon so I can get the coral and the fishys back in the tank! Any ideas on how to clear it up quicker???

    I don't think there is a way to settle faster you just have to wait.
