So I have my 50, but picked up a 150 with stand that has been used as a FW for the last 15-20 years. No leaks, custom stand. Looking to dump the 50 reef and convert the 150. Problem is, it's not drilled. My question is, do I just run overflows, drill it or try to sell for a drilled? Fire...

Does anyone have some suggestions on cleaning up a sand bed? I have a variety or snails and crabs (30+ in a 15G), but my sand bed always looks filthy. I try to do water changes right after blasting the sand and try to get stuff off the surface, but end up sucking up handfuls of sand. Any...
