Nassarius snails, strawberry conch, tiger tail sea cumcumber keep my bed stirred and white. No need for me to do anything.

I have too much LR around the tank to vacuum the sand bed. My damsels do a good job at digging it up and leaving it in large piles.

I have no need to . I have 2 auto vacs, a black and a tiger tail cuke.

i have 2 sandsifting starts and a tiger tail cucumber and a ton of nassarius snails and i still vacuum out the sandbed every week with the water change. i do a third of it each time.

I have a sand bed that goes from zero depth to maybe 3" depending on where it gets moved to.

It used to get quite nastly looking, which forced me to vaccuum every now and then.

Since adding the pair of Sleeper Gobies, my sand looks spiffy-clean all the time! No more vaccuuming... I now use that time blowing sand off the corals! Sigh...

Would stirring my sandbed cause an increase in nitrates?
