Hi,
I have got myself confused on how many, and how much water changes to do.
At the moment I have a Rio 180 planted tank with pressurised co2 feeding double dose of a complete fert. At the moment I am changing 10% to 15% daily and a 50% change once a week.
I have perhaps read too much about this, but some say 50% once a week is enough and others say as much as you can as often as you can . I just want to get it right!
As I am retired, and at home everyday, the time taken for a daily water change is not a problem, but I would like a definitive answer as I want to do the best for my plants and my fishes.
