I put it all in a salt bucket.... put a garden hose in all the way and turned it on.... then stirred it with my hand until the water overflowing was clean.... I lost a bit of sand but the goal was to stir it with my hand and not use enough water force to flood out all the sand.

some might say then it needs to be dried and rinsed again, ect ect... but I put it back in and didnt have any issues.....

saved me 3 sacks of sand.... used one to top it up after.... and the water was cheep....

this was done durring a tank move and the tank water & livestock wasnt exposed to the sand removal.... this preocess can stirup some not so nice (toxic) stuff into the water column.
