I do water changes once a week but moving everything to vacuum the the gravel is a lot more work. What is everyone's opinions on how often to vacuum?
Additional info:
It is a 29 gallon tank with an Aqua-Tech (cheap walmart type) HOB filter, and a UGF. I have 3 cories to help keep the bottom clean. It's fully stocked - 28 to 30in of fish (danios platies and guppies). My nitrates tend to be on the high side - about 50ppm.
I want to add more plants which will make vacuuming even worse. The plants I already have are: hornwort, anacharis, red tiger lotus, java fern, and an unidentified walmart plant.
