i bought this tank a few days ago.. and as i said in another thread it came with gravel that had been in the tank from the previous owner.. and i rushed and filled it and i had dirty water... so thanks to some suggestions from mfker's i emptied it bought some pool filter sand.. washed it out and cleaned the tank up..
i took some pics off my camera phone along the way.. let me know what you think... (hopefully the pics work)
day one: i filled the tank.. this is a pic with the old gravel.. after all the crap settled to the gravel.. looked alot worse in person
day two i emptied it and this is what the bottom of the tank looked like once i removed most of the gravel.. GROSS!
