Today was tank cleaning day. I go in with a tooth brush and clean out any spots that are a bit fuzzy. I also take a power head and blow out all the rock of junk. As you can imagine this puts allot of junk in the water column. I let it settle a little then do my water change sucking up as much as I can. But no matter what I do I still can't get as much junk out as I would like.
So I was thinking about using a large canister filter to help remove the stuff floating free in the water while power head blowing and even during vacuuming. Or for that matter using the Canister filter as a vacuum.
Any thoughts?
The tank is a Red Sea 625 (130g) and a bare bottom. Has been up and running for near 7 Months. My turn over is 3000lph.
