So tank is going on 10 months now, it is a JBJ45 which I started with 40lbs of dry rock. I changed out my chemipure in my media basket the other day and noticed a lot of build up of junk in my filter media (they're those simple plastic rings).
Is there really any point for having those in there? I feel like they trap detritus more than help my tank.
I imagine my rock ought to have enough beneficial bacteria where those things aren't of any use, but figured I'd ask before I pull them and cause a mini cycle. I'm already dealing with cyano I'm tired of.
