I tried rinsing half a bag of pea gravel I got from the local Lowes the other day and it was a pain! I love the way it looks but I rinsed it at least 50 times using the tilted bucket method and hand stirring and it just kept making the water murky. Is there an easier, more efficient way to clean it? Or is there a different gravel that is cleaner when you buy it that doesn't cost a fortune?
