Detrit in display

[Ilya_Tihomirov]

Hello. In my AOI mixed reef, a lot of detritus accumulates under the rocks, I periodically blow them out, which raises a lot of suspended matter, I think it also raises phosphate. I would like to use some kind of internal filter during purging to collect debris and suspended matter. Recommend an internal filter. Aquarium volume 130 liters display 60/45/45 cm

a lot of detritus on the rocks means not enough flow in the tank.

I always use a turkey baster to blast my rocks before any water change. If you think the detritus build up is bad on the rock, blow into a hole in the rock and watch all that nastiness come out. All this detritus needs to come out of your tank, not stay in the tank. You need flow to blow it around so it can get caught in your filtration.

Detritus will clog up the rocks and make them less effective. You should do some work on checking the flow in your tank, every tank should have at least one powerhead, 2 is always better.
