How often do you guys clean your tank?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
well i am understocked on my tanks ATM..what a good problem to have huh!..so i do 50% WC every 3-4 weeks
 
i tend to overstock a bit so minimum 50% weekly . sometimes 2 or 3 times a week depending on how busy i am or how much i've been feeding .
i have a community tank with tetras and such ...that one gets less maybe around 40% every week or two ....
 
On saturdays I take everything out, decorations, rocks, ect and vacuum the tank. I do anywhere from 30 to 50% once a week. I also scrub the algae off.
 
50% water change during gravel vac every 2 weeks works for me.
 
We do a 20% WC every week on our bare bottom tanks and koi ponds here in the tropics. The koi ponds have a constant water drip. We siphon all the untouched food left in the tanks 1 to 2 hours after feeding and top off the water level every day.
 
I do 50% wc's weekly. In general one week is simple 50% siphoning and replacing water, while the next week is a full gravel vacum of 50% and water replacement.
