Follow It Home

Hey everyone, I just planted my first planted tank () and was just wondering how I go about vacumming the gravel without disturbing the roots?

Depending on how heavliy planted it is....I usually angle in from the side, toward the underside of the plants. If they are small enough, I put the vac right over the plant.
