Reply With QuoteNanyang Seaview. $60 plus. That made me think twice. If you want to clean the gravel you can vacuum using a siphon. That's what i have been doing.
But just to check, did you cycle your tank? That's one of the most common mistakes noobs make.
My cichilds are dying and I don't know why. But I suspect I have to clean the gravel because there's a lot of poop there.
Super newbie in keeping fishes.
Can anyone advise where I can get one of those battery powered gravel vacuum?

More than ONE fish = Fish
More than ONE species of fish = Fishes
Can buy at Seaview and there are a couple of other battery powered options but they're not cheap.
There could be a lot of reasons why they are dying... might be better to give more details for the bros here to try and troubleshoot first instead of spending money on something not needed.
tank about one month old.
first time change 25% water 2 days ago.
fishes are VERY normal before that.
today come in office see one fish RIP. the rest like going to up lorry soon.
gravel got a lot of poop. i suspect that is the cause but i might be very wrong.
what should I do then?
or should i not have changed water?
25% water change after 1 mth seems like a lot. Should change lesser amount but at a more frequent interval.
Did u put antichlorine?
