ARE WATER CHANGES NEEDED EVEN WITH GREAT TEST RESULTS?
I'm running a Fluval FX6on a 125 gallon tank with a total of 8 small cichlids in it (see signature). I have had the tank setup with fish for about 2 months and my water tests are all coming back pretty good. My most recent water test results was:
Ammonia - 0
Nitrate - 5
Nitrite - 0
Do I need to do a water change if my water tests all come back good? I had been doing it every two weeks, but I'm wondering if I need to with the tests results I have. Thoughts?
Thanks so much for any help!
