During my weekly gravel vac, I get clouds of waste from my 26g tank gravel. Nothing out of the ordinary, I only feed the fish once a day.
In the 10g tank, I barely get anything out of the gravel. I have to hunt around to find much of anything in the gravel. The gravel stays WAY cleaner than in the larger tank.
I tried feeding both tanks the SAME ammount of food for a week. Less fish, smaller tank... The 10g gravel should have been a mess. The gravel in the 10g was still cleaner
Is this because of the Cory Cats that spend all day poking around in the gravel and keeping the waster stirred up until a filter catches it? I am thinking about moving the Cories to the 26g or getting a Yo-Yo Loach for the 26g.
