Aquarium Advice Freak
hi all, and everyone else...
Ok so, i havent posted in yonks and alas my tank has turned mung (aka ugly, bad). I have retreated to the beginners forum to ask some particularly n00bie questions
Ok, so somehow, ive let my aquarium endevours fall to such lows that i've even forgotten how often i should be changing my water :s
I have a 20 gallon freshwater tank, injecting co2. live plants, java fern, java moss and anubis nani. These seem to be the only plants i have any long term success with so i think i'll just stick to them, i think they look nice so i figure i may as well fill my tank with them and besides, i can just tell everyone that sees my tank that they are actually really delicate precious plants
fish: i have 2 small bristtle nose plecos, 4 cherry barbs and 8 neons.
Main question was just how much and how often i should change the water? 25% every second week? It's not like i have anything fragile in my tank plant wise, and i haven't had a fish death in well...forever.
I really like my foreground of ferns, moss and anubis. with the rocks and wood it looks great (i think anyways) so im excitied to get my whole tank looking like that.
thanks in advance guys
keep it spunky
