Turns out my sand was an argonite type, so that plus my dead bulbs may be to blame for my blue green algae.
Gave me a good excuse to get some black sand, I like it so much more. A pleco duty doesn't show up so much B I think it suites the oscars better and lastly my pleco is kind of hidden where ever he goes. So i'm sure he appreciate that.

((more pics below))
Water is still a bit cloudy from the one type of sand I put in. Other stuff didn't cloud up as much.
Took me about 5 hours to change it over. Kept changing the water while I did so my fishies didn't have to stand the poo and muddy water that I was stirring up for too long.
I like it, changed it around a bit too.
First few pics I thought were cool since I took them from over the water when the lid was off.
