@00W should I still do a blackout after the clean? Would this not stress the fish out a lot?
Black outs don't typically stress the fish too much.

A blackout will have absolutely no ill effect on your fish, they will be fine. Let’s and wait on the hydrogen peroxide and see how this works out.

Got it. I should change the filter out after too? I've got a small carbon bag ready and some floss. Will that be good?
