If i get sand for my 10 gallon tank how would i clean it? does the filter help keep it clean?
 
To clean sand is pretty simple. You hover the siphon over the sand about half an inch to a quarter, depending on the strength of the suction and just take the debris off the surface. Unlike gravel, the waste doesn't usually get underneath the surface so you don't have to siphon it up.
