Pinch the hose firmly to pause or slow down the water flow whenever needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVacuum the Substrate: Push the rigid tube straight down about 1 centimeter into your gravel bed. Release your pinch on the hose so the suction pulls up the trapped fish waste and debris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLift and Repeat: Once the debris is sucked away, pinch the hose again. This cuts the suction, allowing the heavy gravel to drop back down to the tank floor while keeping the dirt moving out. Move to the next dirty patch and repeat.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jasmin Aquatics Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53422353744169,"sku":null,"price":12.9,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/4325\/2521\/files\/Micro-Pellets_20260812_172756_0000.png?v=1786541299","url":"https:\/\/jasminaquaticsstore.com\/products\/aquarium-gravel-cleaner-17mm","provider":"Jasmin Aquatics Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
