Hey I'm about to get a fish tank and put lots of live plants and decor in it and i was wondering how can I clean the fish tank with all that stuff in the way or what is the easiest way to clean the fish tank w/ lots of live plants and decor in the fish tank
You don't take the fish out that stresses them and usually kill them i just want to know how do you clean it not how stuff works
 
get the fish out and put one end of a hose in the tank and suck on the other side until the water starts coming out drain the water and clean it out. then fill it back up and put clorine remover in it and it is good to go
 
Get multiple sucker fish or cat fish. They are bottom feeders and they eat the gunk off the walls and plants. it will prevent you from having to clean the tank very often.
