poo cleaning

[Tener ds]

hi,just finished a poo clean in my 75L and noticed large amounts of poo trapped in one of the bogwood caves.i use a plastic 6mm wide tube to suck up the poo but cant get it in the cave cos of the angle.can,t remove the cave cos of where it is ad the plants on and around it.any have any ideas as to how i can suck up the poo?

Take a small internal filter and blow the water in to the cave then remove the waste as it flys out

I use an intake pipe. Soak it in hot water and the bend will straighten to a right angle. Put a piece of hose on the end and use it as a siphon. You can put the end of the pipe near the mouth of the cave and it will suck out the poo. Also handy for sucking up poo around fry etc. It also saves you immersing your whole arm into deep tanks.
