Could I pour the sand into my tank, fill it with water, turn on my filter, and agitate the sand for the next 2 weeks instead of rinsing it using the bucket method?
I am getting play sand from walmart and putting it in a 75 gal tank and am getting 3 axolotls in 2 weeks. I haven't slept very well for the past few days trying to prep the tank and I find out I don't have enough sand! Great! So, I'm just trying to find something that is cost and time efficient. If I could stir up the sand a few times over the next week and let the filter do its thing rather than the bucket method it would be perfect!
