hello,



i have a group (3) of muds and a group (3)of sliders living together in a 75 gallon aquarium in my room. today i had to clean my two canister filters for the tank and i noticed a lot of sludge/crud is there any way to lighten the load on the filters? are there some fish/plants that will dispose of turtle waste? thanks.
