If by crud, you mean uneaten food and detritus, it could cause elevated nutes. It is pretry easy to siphon out.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

    Votes: 16 32.7%

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 6 12.2%

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 7 14.3%

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 11 22.4%

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 9 18.4%

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 8 16.3%

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 4.1%

  • I haven’t really considered this before

    Votes: 4 8.2%

  • Something else (see my comments in the thread)
