So, yesterday I did my first tank cleaning/water change. I scrubbed the tank with an algae pad, suctioned the gravel with my hose, & did a 15% water change.
I noticed when I was done the water was cloudy and there was gunk floating around in my tank. The fish swam around gobbling up some bits afterward. Today, it looks normal so I assume it's all settled back on the gravel.
Is it normal to kick up so much gunk while cleaning the gravel or did I not do a good job suctioning the gravel?
