I want to rearrange, clean decorations and give gravel a major cleaning in my 90 gallon. I have 7 discus in tank. Should I just leave fish in tank or take them out while I’m doing this work? Don’t know what will stress them out more? I have less than an inch of gravel in tank. When I change water twice a week I clean gravel but not under driftwood and artificial plants.
 
Could do it either way, I usually just leave the fish in. If you've been gravel-vaccing everything but under the driftwood, it shouldn't be too bad, will probably be a bunch of gunk under there so just lift it slowly to avoid stirring up as much as you can. And get right in there with the vac.
