Tank Maintance Options

[supzfier]

Not an important issue...
How long do you maintain your tank?
cleaning the glass walls of it internally / externally.

My tank has small white "patches" collected at the wall. is it some sort of problem? I often use a tank scrubber to clean the inner walls of the tank.

You can do water changes everyweek, change 10 - 20% of your water weekly, don't forget to put dechlorinate.

I do my water changes every 2 days, but some people do it weekly

For inside glass, you can use mag-float, I have it in my tank and it's a life saver, my hand doesn't get wet when I clean the glass.

Here's the link of what mag-float look like:

due to the goldfish's waste production ability, 10-20% weekly is insufficient, and subjective to stocking level, a min of 50% is recommended, always BUFFER your water, i would still recommend a 80% change once a month to remove toxins
