Shannen Banned Posts: 1160 Kudos: 1686 Votes: 98 Registered: 17-Feb-2004	Voted for: What is a Water Change/Gravel Vac? Someone needed to vote for it. It really depends on the tank and the stock. If I miss a water change on the tanks with blue rams then I find dead fish, so they get done once a week. The other tanks are on the under stocked side, so they get done once every other week. The guppie tanks are overstocked..Guppies...go figure. So they get done once a week.

houston Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003	How often do you do water changes/gravel vacs? I know my timing is sometimes based on what is going on, and how I feel, but on average how often do you do yours? Heidi "I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom."

Natalie Ultimate Fish Guru Apolay Wayyioy Posts: 4499 Kudos: 3730 Votes: 348 Registered: 01-Feb-2003	Every other week, because that's all it needs. My nitrates are only about 3ppm by the time a water change is due. I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.

tribblehappy Enthusiast Posts: 221 Kudos: 283 Votes: 41 Registered: 23-Jun-2003	I try to change the water every week, but well it usually doesn't happen quite that often... I gravel vac only once a month on some of the tanks, though; my 29 manages to stay sparkling clean, and when I Python it, no dirt comes out. At all. Not that I'm complaining. I love my fluval! I'm so adjective, I verb nouns!
