Getting tired of cleaning the bare bottom. Coraline starts growing then a film algae green brown takes it over. Thinking of adding crushed coral. Can't have sand to much flow.
Don't think I ever had sand to be honest. Maybe my first reef tank but can not remember. Wait yeah i did a diamond goby through sand all over my prized acans killed them ALL. Sand came out that night.
check out tropic eden sand, they have the tonga reef flakes and tonga reef flakes grand select which might work better for you. their sand is much more uniform in size compared to crushed coral and imo it looks better

Just keep it bare bottom. There’s always going to be pros and cons to either choice. Sand gets ugly too if it’s not cleaned. Pick your poison is what it comes down to lol. I Vote bare bottom tho. I feel like it stands out more.
True he was a bully had an engineer goby and the diamond would go to the engineer goby hole and cover his hole while he was in it. It was a battle of spitting sand. So funny to watch.
