Hi I noticed in my 40 gallon that there is a lot of gunk that stays on the floor. I've been reading that these should simply be moved by the water current to be sucked into the filter but I think my filter is inadequate.
I wanted to ask can I just vacuum these up? I have live sand as substrate and I thought I read somewhere saying I should not be vacuuming my sand. Also, will it be okay to upgrade/add a canister filter? (currently have in hood filter) Will the canister filter pretty much get all the debris and stuff that I am talking about?
I would like my tank to be in good shape and these debris are not much help, also when I vacuum alot of sand gets sucked up as well. thanks!
