I put some gravell and filled my tank up but I need more should I just empty the tank or just add washed gravell there is no fish in it ATM
 
Zinnib,

Zinnib,
Thoroughly wash your gravel
and place some in a large cup or measuring cup. Then lower the cupful of gravel to just above your gravel. Then slowly pour the gravel out. After you get your gravel in, you can then smooth it out. This will minimize the amount of cloudiness you will have over just pouring it in from the top. Hope this helps. You'll still have a little cloudiness but your filter should take care of it in a few hours.
Good luck, OS.
 
Hey guys,
Sorry for the small font. I am replying to the posts with my new Dragon speech software. I am still learning the program that uses commands and settings. Hopefully I have the formatting right now. Beats the heck out of typing. OS.
