Do you do water changes?

21-30%
How frequently do you change your water?
Every two weeks
If I do not change my water...
...I recognize that I will likely be recommended to do a water change, and water changes are critical for preventing future freshwater health problems.
So I just returned from college to check on my tanks and I came home to a nasty surprise my bowfront and hex tank are both infested with hydras. This is one the few pests I don’t know how to handle but I know they can be dangerous and I don’t want to put my young piranhas at risk (their around 3 months old) does anyone know how to remove them?
