that's a good answer.....what is prime?BloodThirsty;2344689; said:I personally do 50% water changes every week of course I sweep the gravel during the change. Scrub the walls with my algee most every week but skip that every once in a while. It's easier to maintain that way and better for the fish as well.
Don't forget the Prime.
I do 25% water changes every week of course I sweep the gravel during the change aswell sometime I get lazy and do it twice a week. I just really wanted to know if its better for my fish to do my water changes every 2-3 times a week or every 4-5 times? At the moment I have a 75g that houses (1) 4"green severum, (1) 4"chocolate cichlid, (2)2.5 hrp-leucistic, (2) 2-2.5"nanos, (3) 2"red hump geos (1)3"oreochromis tanganicae for now . But I'm thinking about selling the (3) red hump geos when there some what 5 to 6 inches and the oreochromis tanganicae when he gets 5-6 inches as well.
if you fart in a 2'x3'x6' closet....wouldn't you want fresh air quick?????
same thing with fish.

remeber that to many water changes can cause problems just the same as too little. if your filtration is up to the job then weekly 30% change is a good figure. also a razor blade is really good for cleaning the glass
WHICH SHOULD BE ONCE A WEEK.
throw yourself and a dozen of your friends in a pool. Have another friend outside of the pool come bring you all food when your hungry, but dont get out. How often would you want your water changed!?
lol
On a serious note a do about 40% a week but it really depends on what size tank, how many fish,filtration,ect.

It removes chlorine from tap water. Perfect if your using a python for changes.
