I do water changes weekly, 10% each time and everything seems to be in order. Just wondering how often y'all do yours.

Now, do you think with a larger tank it is ok to go longer periods without a change? I'm running a 65 mixed right now.

22 gallons every other week on my 220. Mostly softies and lps

Glad to see I'm not the only one doing water changes weekly. I'm assuming having a bigger tank allows you to go longer between water changes

35 gallons on 200 every 2 weeks (17.5%), but Im considering same change weekly. Every time I do a waterchange things seem to get better.

Minimum I will ever do is 30% monthly. This is from evidenced based studies. Let me know if you want the studies, i can provide.

5 to maybe 10% every other week. I have a ULNS so i reallyjust do it to keep in routine, just in case its actually needed at some.point ill already be used to doing it.
 
Weekly.... 2 to 3 gal on the 16 gal nano reef, and 5 gal on the fowlr. I may change to 8 gal every 2 wks on the fowlr, but am not sure yet
 
Biweekly 25 gallons on a 120, 10 gallons on 30 cube, and 10 gallons on 28 cube.
 
I do about a laundry sink full every two weeks. I believe the laundry sink holds 20-30 gallons.
