Water change sunday anyone?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Interesting... My tank is overstocked atm and I was unsure if upping my w/c to 75% or more weekly would be harmful or stressful to my fish. Looks like it is pretty common.

One question though. For those of you that w/c with hoses and faucet systems, how do you rinse out your filter media? Do you just save a 5g bucket for old water to rinse with and let the rest drain?
 
Yeah that's what I did the last two since I started using my hose system. just half filled a bucket each tank and rinsed the media.
 
Yesterday was wc day, but had a CPR recertification course after work and got home kinda late, so was kinda bushed. Took the day off today so figured I do it this morning after a good night's rest.....aahhhh

My 75: GG, green sev, rotkeil, chocolate, & tapajo

Seems like I'm doing about 2 water changes a day now :). Two days ago was my 30G and other 30G, yesterday was my 5.5G and 75G, and today will be my 20G and 15G. (Hey just noticed, 3000 posts!)
 
On the way down again!-)
