Floor drain in new house wasn't draining.

So I dug out a full cup of gravel and silt, along with a small foam ball, a penny, and a nail.
After flushing it with water to make sure it was good and clean, it flows great.
It had a threaded plug to block the cleanout, but it wasn't the right size, and besides the threads in the cast iron are all rusted away. So I filled it with a compression plug. Seems to be working well.
Before:
Is it not loading? The video of it flowing properly shows up in the main post for me
Here's the link
Ah, yeah I don't see that. Unclear if it's my phone browser, or Verizon blocking random shit.
I'll check on my pc when I get home.
But I see the imgur link you just put. That there is a fine draining drain. Yep.
Penny
How did the Penny get in there?

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
