Gravel Cleaning Fluval Edge 6Gal

[bayo]

Hey folks,

Can you help me? How often should I be cleaning the gravel in my tank (Fluval Edge 6 gal). I have some plants and I put root tabs they are helping a lot to grow my plants. I do not want to vacuum the gravel very often because of the root tabs? Any suggestion? Your advice will be greatly appreciated.

Best regards.

I do mine every week during my water change. Have you pushed the root tabs really far under the gravel?
If you just push the gravel cleaner 1cm into the gravel it shouldn't disturb the root tab

Yes I agree with above you'll be fine just don't push as deep into the gravel near your plants
