Water changes

[CMC]

We try to do them bi-weekly. Although the 240-gallon might get it about every 3 weeks sometimes.

It depends...

Right now I'm doing daily water changes on two of the betta tanks because they've got fin rot. Otherwise the 4 gallon would get them once a week, and the 1 gallon would get them twice a week.

The 5 gallon gets a water change every two weeks.

The other betta tank gets one every 3-4 days.

The 10 gallon gets one every week or two.

My 55 gallon tank only gets a cleaning and water change about once a week, but the smaller tanks usually get cleaned more often, depending on how many fish they contain. My fry tanks get daily and sometimes twice daily water changes, depending on how crowded they are and what I'm feeding them.

I don't have a set schedule, and because my tanks have a number of different size filters on them, that will influence which ones get more frequent water changes, as well

Twice a week, my tanks get a 30 to 40% change on the weekend and then another smaller one mid week just to suck up the poop off the substrate and freshen up the water, bigger fish mean the nitrates go up a lot quicker.

My fry and breeding tanks get water changes everyday.

my tanks get as many as i can do really. my 55g gets about 30% done 2 or 3 times a week and my 50g gets about 40% once a week.

[Angel Lady]

Weekly with the 55 gallon ones 2 a week with the 20 gallons 3 times a week with the 10 gallon tanks and the betta tanks get it three times a week.
