Have you tried vacuuming the substrate with your water changes? All that debris is trouble. You need to get rid of it. The powerheads will help keep it suspended until it gets removed either by mechanical or skimming.

Oh, and I am not legend! There a lots more here who know lots more than me! IMHO, there are always more than one way to do things! You just need to know the ups and downs of whatever methods you choose, and understand what your husbandry requirements are with each method.
