Changing Sand

[wieslawwichura]

Hi All

I've got a 23 gallon Long with 1 clown in it for about 2 months now and I would like to change my sand (fiji Pink ) to something like Special Grade . So what would be the best approach to it . Should I temporarily remove fish from the tank, take out water and swap the sand or remove sand with cup and just pour new one but im just worry that tiny bit of dust from sand might harm my fish . What would you suggest guys ??

Thank You

Remove fish and coral, drain down and either net it out or wet/dry vac
