It took about 3.5 hours total to move all the fish to a temporary tank, drain it, dump the gunk, remove the gravel, add the sand, lay it out and plant it, and fill it back up and bring the fish back, but it was for sure worth it. I am a tad disappointed in the quality of some of the plants that I got. The Anubias and Java Ferns were great, but the Pennywort and Vals certainly left something to be desired. Hopefully they will grow in.
Wish I would have taken some more in progress pictures, but oh well!

After:
I ended up taking extra time earlier in the week to wash the sand again, so it wasn't really cloudy at all when we filled it up. To my surprise, everyone even ate last night, so it seems like they weren't shocked too bad. Anyhow, thanks for looking!
