etsuit and try to rearrange the various plants, filters and fountains
in it and figure if there is a reasonably simple way to reduce the
amount of gunk on the bottom I might as well do so while I am in
there. Reason for the wet suit is I am not a water person unless it
is over 80 and I really hate it when the fish nibble on me. So does
anyone have any ideas for getting it tidy, I know the water will be
murky for awhile but I dont care and I am assuming the goldfish and
koi wont either. Anyway let the ideas flow please
