Changing water in nano aquariums.
#1
Hi guys,
I have just bought a 20L tank. And I am going to set it up as a tropical one BUT i was wondering, how do you change the water in such a small tank. Would i have to buy a very small gravel cleaner?. I am using very small shards of gravel for the substrate so will that just suck up the gravel?. I have a big gravel cleaner for my other tanks but it is far to big to use in this tank with the fish still in there. Would I need to remove the fish from the tank before cleaning it out in this case?. Normally i dont like to move fish out because of the stress.
And if I do need to move the fish out, because they would be tropical, would I have to keep their water in a small bowl heated?. Sorry of all the questions lol.
