Balix Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Hope this helps some folks that had trouble with this. Found a easy and cheap solution Found this flexible scrubber at the dollar store. 1. Drain 2/3 of the back chambers and scrub. A lot of detritus and junk will float around. 2. Use the flexible scrubber to reach the bottom chamber and go at it. 3. Drain the rest of the water 4. Fill the back chamber with water (I used tap water) 5. Drain again and repeat again if you like 6. Refilled back chamber with new salt water Link to comment
ScubaSteveZ Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 How often are you doing this? Looks to be a long process Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Very smart, ill be doing this to the 45 before I sell it. Link to comment
Balix Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 How often are you doing this? Looks to be a long process Every 3 to 4 months but depends on your tank. I'm hoping in the future - never - if I can get things under control lol. Link to comment
Elizabeth94 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Yep, this is something I like to do as well. My second chamber likes to grow nasties on the inner walls. I use a toothbrush, but I may need to pick up a brush like yours. I have spare skimmer brush, maybe Ill use that next time. Link to comment
