    • @scrambler69-xk3kv
      @scrambler69-xk3kv 29 дней назад

      Add some water to the tank before adding sand. It helps absorb the shock of the weight of the sand on top of the spider web thing in the bottom of the tank. And be sure to use the cover thing that comes with the filter to keep sand out of the center tube.
