1200 liters tank ... 50% x 3 weekly
Haven't missed a WC for 5 years either.

no one else changes water in there tanks, Thats bad you people shouldnt keep fish.

Because 20ppm of Nitrates is far too high

Put another way, if PH is 6.5, KH 60ppm, GH 180ppm, ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate <20ppm then why remove 1/2 or more only to replace it with water treatd to reach the same parameters?

450 litre display tank here & I do 50% water changes every 3rd day

I change , out of 600 liters , 200 liters once every 2 weeks

It also depends on ,what you keep and what equipment you have.

I wish I only had to change that much. I was talking about how much water you should be changing if your keeping babys, Juvies or adult Discus.

[Tommo]

Babies and juv's i would change daily for babies and every 3 day for juv's , but adults, it really all depends on your equipment and amount of fish.
