is it just me, or does my tank look more murky and not as crisp clear as it did when i had substrate? can having no substrate really cause a tank to go murky? its kinda annoying n making me want to put a substrate back again.

gravel provides a place for the debris to get trapped in. BB the stuff gets kicked up alot easier.
