Aquarium Gravel
The Armory of Freshwater Aquarium Maintenance Tools
Good and clean aquariums are the pride of the aquarist. But in order for these proud aquarists to have, sparkling clean fish tanks, they have to do regular maintenance. But doing freshwater aquarium maintenance can be a bit demanding, and so these aquarists have come up with an array of different tools right from the aquarist armory, to ensure that dirt and its minions can never win over the cleanliness of these prime enthusiasts.
Gravel Vacuums
Specifically called aquarium gravel vacuums, for a more defined naming convention, these machines work exactly like your ordinary vacuum cleaner: they suck off excess dirt in the aquarium that you can’t get your hands on, such as excess food and waste materials.
Algae Pads/Scraper/Scrubber
As the name suggests, they are specifically used to remove the algae from your aquariums, keeping them free of these green monsters. The softer pads are commonly used for acrylic tanks, which are scratched very easily due to their flexible composition.
Fish Nets
These nets can be utilized as a separation bay, much like how fish farmers grow their fish in the sea using nets. You can also use these fish nets as transportation devices, when moving dead or large fishes from the main tank. The size of the holes determines their use, and obviously, the smaller-holed ones are for small fry.
Forceps or Tongs
Primarily useful for picking out certain obstructions in the aquarium, as well as removing dead fish. Apparently, they can also be used as planting sticks.
Pails
Ah yes, the ever so faithful water container. Bet you’re unsurprised? Yep, pails are also good aquarium maintenance tools to use, because they carry water that you can use for partial water changing, full water changing, and many other things.
Siphon Tubes
These are commonly used to drain the water out of the aquarium without you having to literally lift the aquarium and tilt it sideways (which is quite difficult if you know what I mean). This is the reason for the minimum length of a siphon tube: it should at least be able to reach to floor from the rim of the aquarium.
Water pH Testing Kits
As the name states, is used to check the water pH levels in an aquarium. It can generally be used as a pH testing kit for almost anything (yes, even if it not even about aquariums), which is why it can also be used to test certain kinds of waters, like tap water, if they’re safe to use for an aquarium (of course, after following the correct procedures in testing pH levels of tap water).
These tools give the aquarist the edge against all kinds of dirt that can desecrate his or her sacred aquatic sanctum. And in using these tools, you can now conduct your freshwater aquarium maintenance with maximum proficiency. For best results, however, a combination of some of all of these tools would be necessary, along with the proper maintenance procedures.

aquarium gravel?
how do u siphon the floor of a fish tank if u have sand substrate? wut do u like better for a red bellied piranha tank? red gravel or black moon sand?
I say gravel in general because it is easier to clean and maintain than sand over all and the piranha wouldn't beneift from the sand.
