Default Water change daily

Bro, is it good to change 1/3 of water daily? Will it get rid of the good BB?
Thanks

I don't think doing WC daily would be a good practice for aro keeping.

Aros like aged clean water, WC fresh water daily will only stree them up.

That is becoz their tanks have limited space for the fishes. What is your tank size and filteration system used?

I supposed that will depend on your bio load and filtration system.

Just my 2 cents

for me i change my water almost everyday, the worst is every 2 days, but thats is because mine has a high bioload. but i do have an aging water tank. i change bout 30% each time.

If your filteration system can support the bioload, wc weekly or twice a week is good enough coz your tank is very big.

So there will be 2 x 4ft ohf?
