    What kind of filtration you have? What kind of flow - you need powerheads blowing across your rock. Any protein skimmer? A CBS is cool but they are kind of aggressive and will limit you to any other shrimp you may want to get down the road.

    a powerhead will do alot to suspend detritus until your filter can capture it.

    other wise go through with a airline hose and suck it out.
