Seriously water change

[orionduck]

Hello all,. How often do you all change your water? ------ don't be shy?


I am thinking about 3 month to do another water change..,, I have about 467 volume of salt water combine.. little fish not toooo many stock

 

[clowninout456]

10 gallons each week on 100 gallon system

you should change a little often as oppose to a lot at once

say 3-5 % a week.........

*it makes it a lot harder to help you when you keep starting new threads on each sub-topic. The answer is about how everything works together *

The answer to this question is;
Smaller more frequent water changes are probably best.
A common reccomendation is 10% of the total system volume every month.
Some change more, up to 25% per month.

 

[wrassefan]

20-25% every other week to once a month

 

[pdd]

15-20% twice a month

I usually do about 5 gallons (75 gallon tank) every 2 weeks. Ill do more if parameters need adjusting.
