Tank update

Is it okay that my foxface is a messy eater? I named him/her foxxy BTW. Whenever foxxy eats there are bits of lettuce or whatever floating around in the water. Also If I were to transfer everything to a 55 gallon ( which I am not going to. Atleast for a long time) can I put all my LR in there? After I cycle it with maybe 30ish pounds of uncured LR can i just upt all the LR from my existing tank in there? Also if i move my sand to the new tank it should be on top of new sand?
Anyways back to the my current tank. Everything is good. Readings are all good, PH 8.1. My next addition will most likely be a cleaner shrimp, which I will be getting next month because I am broke. I will need to use "drip acclimation" right? Will it work with 1/2" tubing? Just tieing knots in it? I will try to get pictures... no camera right now. Not even cellphone cam. Well will update again if anything happens. So, my LFS said i will be able to get mushrooms when my tank is atleast 6 months old, is this true?
 
yea its ok if its a messy eater as long as the clean up crew gets the left overs. yea u should move the lr over to the 50 when u do the move it will lessen the cycle. u can use the old sand as long as it isnt dirty if it is just use a bit of the top sand and rinse the rest with saltwater from the aquarium.
mushrooms can be added after 2-3 months depending on the set up. and the drip line should be air line tubing with a check valve to control the flow.
 
Do I have to suck on the airline....
 
Hvae you sucked on airline tubing before?....
 
It's okay if you drink a bit of saltwater right? Used to always get mouthfuls of my freshwater tanks
 
WHAT? Bacteria.... Will it be okay if I just spat it out and rinsed my mouth with water? I did it with my freshwater tank when it had a leak. Siphoned the water out before not too much leaked. I'll be okay right? Unless it gave that horrible stomach flu 9 months after i did it
