I was doing a weekly water change of about 30 percent. But recently my stocking increased and testing showed that I was having a little ammonia now and then by the end of a week and the nitrates were creeping up, they went from 8 or so to the 20's. So now I worked up to doing 50 percent weekly.
I feel good consistent quality water is the most important element of a healthy aquarium. It is a closed system, not a lake or river where the water is being constantly renewed. They say, fresh water fish love fresh water, and it can be healing for bumps and lumps on fish.
