Dunlager Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 There is something about doing the weekly water change and seeing that the water coming out of the tank is nearly as clear and blue as the water going in. Of course bucket number two from vacuuming the substrate brings you back down to earth So anyone else doing their H20 swap today? Bill Link to comment

If I ever delay my water change a day or two it feels off to me lol Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Nope, and don't plan on it for a while. The only water changes I do are as close to 100% as I can every few months or so, and that's only if something drastic like that needs to be done. Link to comment
Clown79 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I enjoy doing my water changes too and tmw is water change day for me:) Link to comment
jamescstein Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Need to do one but I've been slacking off. Starting to get cyno and my nitrates are rising. Link to comment
mystersyster Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Doing one today... calcium is above 500 (unreadable on the nyos kit) and I have no idea wtf happened. So I'll be doing a water change to see if I can get things down. Doesn't seem to be affecting anything... my digi has less polyp extension though. Link to comment

vegasgundog Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I especially love spitting salty aquarium water into the bucket when timing gets off. Link to comment

squamptonbc Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Best feature of the M40 is the water drain hose, never made water changing so easy, and no accidental saltwater in the mouth, now if only they could have put that feature on the freshwater versions..... Link to comment
