Mr Miagi Veins are flowing with SW, now going back to FW! Joined Mar 5, 2004 Messages 3,865 Reaction score 0 Location Adelaide, Australia! May 23, 2006 #7 I do a saltwater change when I can be bothered travelling to get NSW. When the weathers bad, I mix synthetic salts. Roughly once a month I change water now. Ive slakened off of late, because im topping off around 3 litres of FW a day.
