 |
|
i was wondering should i change the water like 25% every week, will this prevent algea build up and less dirty water????
Can you give me some tips on keeping your tank clean the longest without having to change all the water???
Thanks
jenn

I change my water every week or so. Only about 25% of it. Right now I am going through a phase where it seems like I need to do water change every few days.  |
