Bio media cleaning?
I run two Marineland c-360 on my 75 gallon African cichlid and am curious about how often the bio media should be cleaned. The included instructions say often. Often? What is often? Should I just rinse the bio media in aquarium water? I am being cautious as I don't want ot to kill off helpful bacteria and start a mini cycle.
Also what do you guys/gals think of prefilters ( Sponges over inlets ).
Thanks in advance for your help.
