Best way to get 200 lbs of sand out of my 180 gallon?

[that_fish_Guy]

I need to get all the sand out of my 180 gallon so I can make it a sump. Is there any efficient way besides shop Vac? Otherwise u will be scooping it out with a solo cup lol.

Why not the shop vac?

I've used one of those gutter cleaners before, or a dustpan would work.
