The most common way to do this is to place sand in a good sized bucket(around 5 gallons) and run a hose all the way down the bucket, then run the water until the run off comes out clear.

well, i bought him from the wet spot, a reputable dealer imo, and hes only 2 inches so for now im hoping hes actually what i bought, M. Leiurus. But a juvi Turgidus would also be nice since i was in the market for a puffer that grew to a decent size. We'll see how he looks in the future. Whatever he...
