Good questions! Please post the parameters of your water. Is there live rock in there? What did you do to make that sand "live"? What are your tank's parameters?

tank has been setup....its was switched from salt i added live sand.... and live rock to the tank as far as parameters all i know is nitrate and nitrite are both around 0......
 
i also have a micron sock filtering the water from the tank and the skimmer...my fx5 is in the sump also..
 
Try using a HOB filter & add filter floss in there. Change out when it gets clogged with the fine dust particles.

problem is is that i am using all of mines id hate to purchase another one if its not needed the sand has been in the tank for like a week now maybe a lil longer but you'd think an fx5..sump...with a sponge on the pump....a skimmer and a big micron sock filtering all the water would be enough i think ill wait till i add more live rock and see if that changes anything cause all i have now is like 60 pounds of rock in the tank its still pretty open maybe too much current at the moment?
 
No need to buy another filter...
 
Tank size?
