Netting in DSB

[Black]

Hi everybody,

Maybe due to the fact of carrying 21 bags of sand (#o n1) home and tried washing a few bags --then gave up. Then bring all 21 bags into the tank. Guess what, I forgot to put the netting in the DSB. My DSB now is about 6" thick (high low at different place)

Anyone out there keep gobies n jawfishes etc...do they really dig in deep. Pls advise. What do u suggest??? can I leave it or start think of ways to insert netting. Thanks.

We couldn't find any netting that was small enough for Grade #0, so we didn't use any. But I thought netting is needed 4 a plenum not a DSB? We wanted 2 do a plenum but since cannot obtain the necessary netting-size we omitted the idea & stuck 2 DSB.

With a 6" sand bed, the jawfish can easily reach the bottom glass if it wants to.
