Fish Poo Too Dense

[xcharmanderx421]

i can't seem to siphon poo with my gravel siphon. i'm using sand, so i can't have it too strong and i tried the swirling method to get the poo floating, but everytime it siphons a bit it goes back down.

Also i realize that poo and other things might get buried deeper into the sand, should i try to bring it back to the surface as soon as possible?

any suggestions?

hmm strange what filter are you using?
with mine if i get a foot long plec poo that wont suck up i either suspend it in the syphon and aim it at the intake for the fx5 to suck up or failing that suspend it get a net then cap off the floor so it falls back down into the net
