How do you clean your planted tank?

[danepatrick]

so how often should we change our water and how much?

 

[Mr.Geoff]

well the 75 is going to get a change in maybe a week or so. so it will be 3 weeks roughly at first change. the 20 has yet to have a water change since i set it up in november and the 5 gallon gets them when i think about it. so maybe once a year.

are most of those chemicals and additives for plant growth ok to use in a tank that also contains scaleless fish?

 

[Mr.Geoff]

nope. they dont harm the fishes in any way.

I have 3 planted tanks going all with snakeheads, I change the water 50% once or twice a week with a python. I use prime its fine for a planted tank.

My anubias is taking over (old pic)and I will start a tank outside soon.
