I had some crushed coral in my tank, maybe like a 50/50 mix of crushed coral and sugar grain live sand. After seeing another post about taking crushed coral out of the tank I basically raked out all the crushed coral I could reach (which was harboring waste and hair algae) and I would say within 4 hours my corals are huge. They haven't opened up this much in at least a month and now my sand bed is nice and smooth and my shrimp is much more active.
I don't know if it was all the detritus caught in that stuff or just the bits of hair algae but I didn't do any special water changes or anything and my tank looks easily ten times better.
Next week I will definitely get the rest that I couldnt reach when I do my water change, I didn't think it was THAT big of a deal until after I removed this stuff! woo!
