Well I have a 29 gallon tank right now. I had a 75 gallon tank, but it shattered a couple weeks ago. Fortunatly, I didn't lose any fish. Unfortunatly, now I have a bunch of fish in my 29. I have:

2) 4.5" - Severums
1) 4" - G. Brasiliensis
1) 5" - L-190
1) 3.5" - L-18
1) 2.5" - L-14
6) 3" - L-66
8) 1" - Warmouth
10) 1" - Mosquito fish

Now. Please don't flame me. :( I do two 50% water changes a week. I have the 100 micron filter and a Penguin 350. I have to clean my micron filter daily. Is that about normal?

Again, please don't flame me. I am setting up 6 new 20 gallon long tanks for breeding plecos. The sevs and geo will be going to my friend or a new 75 gallon. I'll toss the L-14, L-18 and L-190 in a pond.

Thanks.
 
No problem, as long as you still have some filters running on the setup (you don't wanna screw up the biological filtration) ...you can definitely clean the micron cloth every day.
