hello everyone! i have recently started a 20 gal high saltwater tank and have a question about cleaning the sand bed. I have 4 turbo snails and they seem to be producing a lot of waste that is just sitting on the bottom. i know that it is difficult to vacuum sand so does anyone know a way to keep this waste
"moving" is it possible to vacuum the sand but do so carefully?

Thanks
