    How many gallons should i be changing. Ive been doing about 4 gallons every 3 weeks. Is this to much, not enough, or just right?

    I am sure you will get plenty of opinions on this. When I had my 34 gal set up I changed 5 gals once month and never had any problems.

    10 % by weekly here. as long as everything is testing correctly, you should be fine.
