How often should I do a water change?
55 gallon
50 lbs live rock
2 damsels
1 small trigger
1 lawn mower blenny
 
I do weekly 10g water changes on my 75. I would say between 5-10 gallons should be good each week. Some go longer, I don't go more than a week as I don't want to drastically change the parameters.
 
I have been doing 10-15 gallon water change every 2 weeks. Just want to see if I was doing them to often
 
I think that is a pretty good schedule. A true indicator would be your water test results.
 
Unless your overstocked then most people get away with 10% weekly or 20% biweekly.
