There has been a thread a while ago with the same question and a (typically) thorough and excellent answer from Frank. You can find it here.

I only deep clean the front as it would be totally impossible to do all the tank. Remember now I have no rooted plants only Anubias. To do it completly it would involve a total pull down. Also I am running two filtration systems, a full UG and the large Eheim Canister Pro11 which I pull down monthly.

Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.
