For my FW tanks in the past I've always used siphon vacuums like these (though the one I have now is larger).
For the aragonite sand however, it BLOWS. The suction just doesn't seem to be good enough to get anything OUT of the tank.
Is there a trick I'm missing? I'd still like to be able to get the crap off the top of the sand without disturbing the bed itself.
