how long does your weekly water change take?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
changes by itself... since i made the switch i will never go back to manual water changes. gravel cleaning, scraping glass, changing pre-filter.... never ending
 
tbh not sure.. I spend approx 30min each day to an hour working on my tanks.. so It's all spread out. though saturdays are usually our big WC day. I clean filters/ect as needed so it's all dependent on how clean everything stays. as stated.. it's alabor of love.. so i don't keep track of the time tbh.
 
2.5 to 3 hours when I do a water change. I have about 360 gallons of water with 5 fish tanks. Mine should be easy because all the water goes on the concrete floor in the basement with a sump pump draining it outside. I do not know but I get lazy sometimes doing the water changes.

Cleaning my tank(s) each week only take about 3 hours. Even with large tanks you can work it down to s science. I actually enjoy working on my tanks so if it takes longer it's a labor of love ;)

3hrs for me as well. But I love doing it. If I could have a tank big enough where I had to get in it to clean it. I would all the time.
