Too much pooooo

[agp]

Hey guys,

I did a partial water change today, and noticed that there are lots of fish poop on the gravel. I know fish usually poop, and poop usually sinks, but there are a CRAP load of poop. Any idea how I can reduce the fish's poop output or put in other animals that will take care of it? I currently have 2 nerite snails, but I never see them move around.

Thanks

That's why you vacuum the gravel when doing a PWC. Get a gravel cleaner and use it with every PWC.

I get a lot of crud stuck inbetween my DHG. Just shove the siphon into the gravel. Its always my otos that make the most...chubby little buggers.
