I've had my tank up and running now since January and other than algae eaters killing my fish, no problems at all.
My question is...how often (if at all) do I have to change the gravel or clean the undergravel filter (if I even need one)? I have an Aquapos 24 gal that I'm using as a freshwater tank.
Also, how do you clean the gravel (I do vacuum it once a week or every two weeks when I do water changes).
Is it best to do a little at a time?? I don't want to take my fish out of my tank and into another, and then return them for fear of shock, new cycling etc.
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance!
