gee, u r quite gungho to go into gravel without knowing the shortcomings!
like g-string said, bad bacteria could thrive there. If the gravel layer is deep enough and anerobic region develop, anerobic bacteria (in the presence of carbon source) could produce hydrogen sulfide gas. This gas, when released into the water, is extremely toxic to fishes. Thus it is recommended to clean the gravel frequently to clear away such anerobic region and waste. that's why I said it can still work but need more effort. |
