Hi everyone,

My newly planted 29g has an aquaclear powerhead for a 30g. I've never used one in a natural aquarium before. I only run it at night with the aerator for the fish, but in the morning, everything is covered in a layer of mulm, all the leaves and moss and wood is covered in junk.

I have it stuck to the end glass and on low, directed to the glass perpendicular to it to break up the flow a bit.

Does anyone else have this problem?

I've quit running it for now, and added an HOB to see if it was because of my poking the substrate everyday with a chopstick (anaerobic problems, over now) and stirring up soil and mulm myself. I'm trying to see if I can filter it all out and put the powerhead back on with no problems.

what do you think?

Thank you!
