Not to seem like a total newbie, but is this am algae bloom or something? Seems like all the sudden my sand turned this dark rust color on top.
Yes. It's fairly new. I do vacuum when I see any food setting on the bottom or waste. And I have a couple corkscrew Val. in there.
Ok, thanks. I fixed up something kinda like that today. Worked pretty well.
Basically it was a vacuum with three tooth picks rubber banded to it. Lol.

Dumb question: if I had a bigger vacuum would it have more suction? Cause I'm having a hard time cleaning up all the Pleco waste with this thing. It seems too heavy.
