| Re: Need Help With Transfering Water And Sand To New Tank From Old Tank ?? Pouring water from one tank to another isn't going to change the salinity, it's a matter of the law of conservation. Put the sand and rock in first to avoid overflowing your 3 gal. They have crumby edges and if you fill it to much you will most likely spill before you get a "bubble top."
