I only feel slightly stupid asking this question, but I want to make sure I ask it before I do something stupid
I'm setting up my first tank with live plants in a 10 gallon. I usually buy cheap gravel for my other tanks, but bought Seachem's flourite fracted porous clay gravel. While I'm rinsing it off, it turns my water absolutely black. It says on the package wash it off for dust residue and I always had with my other gravels. Am I washing off some sort of nutrience in this gravel or is this just dirt? Thanks!
