I need help with poop LOL

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The only way to get rid of solid waste is to vacuum during water changes.
No filter really takes it out, and if you don't regularly remove it, it becomes chemical waste, which although unseen, is much worse.
 
i would suggest looking into diy under-gravel jets. granted i only had set it up in a 30 gallon long, but if you do it right (right amount of jets, angle of jets, etc) you can eliminate all dead spots. i rarely had to vacuum poo
 
I have a couple wave makers which push things to 1 major area and sometimes a second smaller spot. As mentioned the battery vacs are awesome- i dont have an eheim, i forget the make but it was about a quarter the cost and it works perfectly
 
Four hob filters sounds like a pain in the butt. Maybe you sjould thino about a sump. If you have enough pump poop will necer settle on any surface. A mag 12 would work well if the sump isn't far away.
