I have a small 16 gallon nano tank. I use RO/DI water only. Every week i do maintenance of the tank in this order:
- prepare 5g of fresh RO/DI water, mix salt in it and heat it to 25 degrees/Celsius (298K),
- clean rocks lightly with a brush to remove debris and Hermit crab poo, sometimes i celan harder to remove algae more,
- take out all electrical equipment (for easier cleaning of the tank), scrub it with brush,
- clean glass all around,
- siphon the sand,
- replace missing water with 5g of fresh one,
- clean the glass from the outside,
- done.
Is this too much, not enough, should i do it differently?
Tank is doing ok, corals look happy, fishes too, but i have algae problem, specialy red hairy ones on the rocks and sand. I feed once a day.
- 1 Yellow clown goby,
- 2 Firefishes,
- 1 Peppermint shrimp,
- 3 Nassarius snails,
- 2 blue leg Hermit Crabs.
Tests show 0 Nitrates and 0 Phosphates. Shouls i use any other test if RO/DI water is good or any other test for aquarium water?
Tank is 6 months old.
