    After its established and you dont over feed a 20-30% every 2 weeks would be fine. With a well set up tank, it will require minimal water changes, just enough to keep nitrate levels down. I use purigen in my set ups and i can confitently say a WC once a month would be fine.

    But i over feed so they get a %20 once a week.

    Long term salties are easier to took after than freshies!

    tank is actually spelled as tanks, the "s" is silent so no-one ever uses it anymore.
