About once a week for the front and one side. I could probably cut that down a few days. :wink: I have never cleaned the back and other side. Except for the coraline those sides are actually easier to see through than the front after a few days.

every 2-3 days as well. would lots of snails do the trick? i have an acrylic tank so i don't think those magnetic things would be good for it.

every day for the front, some times twice or even more. every other day on the sides and never on the back

I guess on average about 2x, 3x per week. Not very often (sometimes I'll let it go as long as a week, as long as I can still see into the tank). Basically it depends on how ambitious I feel!

I notice that each tank has very different schedules. One tank can't go for more than a day or two before it's too opaque and the other can go as long as two weeks before it gets comparable to the other tank at two days.

And I guess that is the crux of this topic. Why is tank "A" different from "B"? Lighting? FLow? Water quality? Age?

Taking any and all guesses!! :razz:
