I got two aquaclear 300 filter on my 30 gallon tank (bare bottom) with 4 goldfish.

How often should I clean the sponges in the fitler media ? I am always worrying that those trapped poos in the sponges would foul my water after deteriorating over time.

thx

why worry so much about those poo.

just normal weekly 90% change and at the same time clean up 1 of the filter will do. alternate week switch filter to clean will not harm your filtration.
