no overkill on that

or soak with fresh water 4-6 hours then dump and refill with fresh water and soak again 4-6 hours...but I am paranoid like that

Yeah, I'll definitely be soaking in fresh water a lot :)

I should soak the gravel too right?

Yeah. And as always, with caution. xD

If you soak the gravel make sure you let it air dry completely (in the sun if possible). You can spread it out onto a plastic trash bag and set it in the sun. You should not be able to smell any chlorine. Also, When you're ready to set up your tank use a double dose of dechlorinator just to be safe.

I've only got .75 gallons of bleach with me, should that be able to do the job if I let it soak more??
