Questions before you choose

How often should I change the water?

A regular partial change every week or two beats a rare full change. The amount depends on how heavily the tank is stocked, and a nitrate test tells you whether the schedule is enough. The water change guide gives a schedule by situation.

How do I remove white deposits from the glass?

White deposits are usually mineral salts from the water itself, left where it evaporates at the waterline. They come off with a scraper or a magnetic cleaner, and wiping above the waterline with a damp cloth every week stops them building up in the first place.

Should I clean the filter on water-change day?

Better not, and not on the same day. Cleaning the filter and changing the water together removes a large share of the beneficial bacteria at once. Rinse the filter media in old tank water, and do it on a separate occasion.
