How often do you clean detritus from your sump?
What is your Method?
Siphoning doesn't appear to be very effective because my sump practically sits on the floor. I have considered a shop vac, but that seems extreme. The last time I went to clean the sump detritus, I simply used a rod to stir the water in hopes that my skimmer would remove most: this method worked to some extent but doesn't seem like a very effective method either.
So how do you do it?
