Hi,
I got my new tank about two weeks ago so I have changed the water twice now. I know you're supposed to do an about 50 percent water change weekly (I have a 3.5 gallon tank), but whenever I dump out half the water, there are always visible fish waste bits and random debris. I do use a gravel vacuum and I have a filter, so what's the problem? Is this normal? I can't stand the dirty water look.
Also, whenever I take out my decoration to clean, there's always this slimey substance on it. It's practically clear in color, and with hot water it comes off. What is it
I would appreciate any information. Thank you!
