Seriously considering no filtration at all....  ;)  Geert is doing it.  I would love to try it.

Can we open discussion on the merit of no filtration, changing 100% water?
The way i see it:
Day 0: Change water
Day 1: Ammonia starts to accumulate, nitrite 0, nitrate 0
Day 2: Ammonia continue to accumulate, nitrite probably starts too
Day 3: Ammonia continue to accumulate, nitrite accumulates
Day 4: Ammonia rising, nitrite accumulates
Day 5: Change water again.

If the model above is correct, won't our gfs be experiencing ammonia for days? Ammonia may be not at alarming level, but nonetheless most of their lives, there is ammonia present.
What do you all think? UNLESS we change 100% water EVERYDAY, then ammonia is out of the question.

i dont question geert's skills, i am a fan of his ranchus. i just want to see the logic behind 100% water change.
