me got an interesting ques....

how come my bare tank seems to have more debris overnight than before with red quartz...? ... all the SW shells are floating around at the base, but before this, they will get "blown" to the filter inlet...

debris more obvious..more easy spotted in bare tank.. = easier to do maintenance..
whether does it get 'blown' into filter or not.. U got to check the filter wool liao..

my bare tank also lots of debris .. mp shell..puffer shit. too big..can't get suck into my OHF..
sometimes lazy..just leave it there to rot..produce food(ammonia) for BB
