Hi, everyone.

After being sick and then busy for over a month, I finally changed out some of 
my aquarium's water (about four cups' worth).  I added the stress 
reliever/dechlorinator and algae preventer and then I noticed all the junk in 
the water.  I bought a simple gravel tube a while ago (stick it in and it sucks 
the stuff up by gravity) and I was wondering what was the best way to use it.

I'm gathering that I put the tube in the aquarium, move it until suction occurs 
and because the pail is lower than the aquarium, all the junk filters out.  
I've never done it before, so if anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it. 
:)

Later,
Sean

P.S. The fish are doing quite well despite their treatment. :)  My wife and I 
are considering purchasing a 10-gallon aquarium to help them have a happier and 
more comfortable living space as they've grown a little bit and seems a little 
more crowded in there than before.
