    Do you guys/gals find that you have to clean the glass in your tank every other day or so or is it just me?

    Get glasses so you don't leave nose prints.

    sometimes once a week, or times 3x a week. depends on how much food I feed the tank. I only do the front panel mostly. side panels maybe 2x a month. Aiming a powerhead against the length of front glass panel helps prolong cleanings for me.
