I thought changing to much water was dangerous to BB?
Ausfish said:It is! You work hard to establish a healthy level of bacteria in your tank, doing water changes is great but I wouldn't do more than 50%, maybe up to 75 if there's a problem in the tank. Don't get me wrong I'm all for pwc's but taking out too much water might throw your little Eco-system off guard and start a small cycle.
Well anyways i always rinse filter media in old tank water and only do 30% water changes unless a fish is sick then i'll do a 50%.
Thank all of you! I think I'll do like a 20-30% change every other day. Is that good to you guys? I'm sort of a beginner.
