Just enjoy how it swirls around in the water. It will do nothing. You can leave it there or siphon it out.

You could actually use the stuff for substrait but it kind of does not stay put.
It doesen't dissolve. I have a bunch of it mixed in with my gravel, some of it has been in there since Nixon was president. :lol:
