        Step number one is to get the tanks right side up...

        J/K! Info like what you have for livestock on the tanks, feeding schedule, water change schedule will help figure things out.

          Also, what are you "obsessed" about? This is not the place to look for a cure for your aquatic addictions

            Are your other tanks upside down?...sand gets unsettled that way.
            Kidding, kidding...

            Are the other tanks newly set up? What kind of sand is it, and did you rinse it before putting in, and how much?

              Oh, and how long have the tanks been up and running? How often do you clean filters?

                        How much water gets removed each water change? What about feeding?
