I'm having trouble cleaning the substrate with all the plants in the way. Anyone have some secret tip? Maybe I just have too big of a siphon and need a smaller more maneuverable one.
I have learned to take a large portion of the total water change out(10-15gal. of a 20gal. change) before I start vacuuming the gravel. Then I do the open areas first and then vac. the rest. When the Python clogs I'm done.
