Am I supposed to pick up the boulders and caves and gravel vac under them? 'Cause I haven't.

Hi,
Yes, you should. There is no circulation under them and
the amount of detritus will surprise you. That is an easy
place for anaerobic bacteria to thrive.

YES just another little thing to do, it can be done once a month or do one/two piece/s per week.

You will be surprised the amount of gunk there is under them.
