 | Gravel vaccuming sandbed? |
pmdaggett   Enthusiast Posts: 191 Kudos: 169 Votes: 1 Registered: 25-Jul-2004   | I was told by someone that they gravel vac their sandbed. This sounds like a giant mess to me. Anyone that does this? I don't see why you would in a reef tank but maybe you know something I don't know. |
