Regarding my aquarium;
I gravel vac my aquarium quite often, while I also do water changes weekly.
I have a 20 gallon stocked with these fish:
2 Black skirt tetras
2 Red phantom tetras
4 neon tetras
and to help with the bio-load:
1 Mystery snail
2 Otocinclus catfish
The problem is, whenever my fish swim very fast close to the gravel, a whole bunch of junk flies everywhere.
Please excuse the rough description, but I am just trying to best describe my situation.
I DON'T have any kind of substrate other than my coarse gravel (each pebble a little over pea-sized).
I have a Whisper bio-filter. This is an awesome filter, and if there is anything in the water when this is running it will be gone in about 25 seconds.
So don't get me wrong, my filter is working great.
This is the only filter system I have in my aquarium. Should I get an air pump? Should I get another filter?
Any help on this situation would be GREATLY appreciated!!
