Gravel cleaner?

[Droyed]

I would like to clean the gravel in my tank, but don’t want to drain the tank to do it. I’ve seen gravel vacuums, but they are suited for larger tanks, not a two gallon tank. Their attachments are large and flow rates are higher than I need. Any experienced insights among this group? Thank you for your ideas.

I’ve posted about a cloudy water issue that, I’ve since found out, was caused by the distilled water I used to set up my tank. The distilled water had a very high mineral content that precipitated out of solution and deposited a thick layer on the bottom of my tank. While it doesn’t seem to affect the shrimp, they won’t even walk on it. So, I’m interested in removing those deposits.

I use turkey baster to clean dirt from opae ula tank, then filter sucked water and then drain it back to the tank.
I have to clean because kind of brownish algae grows on glass and falls as a nasty flakes on gravel. And unfortunately horned nerites don't eat this algae.

Thank you for a great idea!
