    ya, it will be fine for sure. you can also just get base rock if you are upgrading. could save enough to get a prize coral!

    Just to mention, you may be better off starting with new substrate. all kinds of nasty can be unleashed if you try to reuse sand from an established aquarium, just scoop out a cup to seed the new.

    GL!
