Hi
I started my fish tank up about a month and a half ago and everything's going ok except my water does go cloudy very quicky so i do at least a 25% water change every week.
Becasue in a week im going to Mexico (yeah) on my holiday i completly cleaned my fish tank out so my parents don't have to worry about it whilst i'm away.
I've got a tank that holds 14litres of water so i would say a medium size.
When clenaing it i realised that my gravels been holding a lot of muck.
I have probaly a good 10cm of gravel (depth) at the bottem of my fish tank, my boyfriend said it looked better with more gravel....
Would it be wise to when i next clean it to maybe half this amount? would it help stop my water getting so dirty and would investing in a gravel hoover help?
