| Aquarium Type | Recommended water change frequency | Change the water volume |
|---|---|---|
| Freshwater tank (low density) | Once a week | 20%-30% |
| Freshwater tank (high density) | 2 times a week | 30%-50% |
| Seawater tank (coral) | Once a week | 10%-20% |
| Seawater tank (fish) | Once every 2 weeks | 20%-30% |

2.Turn off the device: The heating rods, filters and other equipment need to be temporarily closed to avoid dry burning or damage.
3.Absorb waste water: Use a siphon to clean the debris on the bottom bed (recent hot topic: How to avoid destroying nitrifying bacteria).
4.Add fresh water: The temperature adjustment and chlorine removal of new water must be adjusted and the temperature difference between the old water shall not exceed 1-2℃ (recently popular controversy: whether RO water must be used).
5.Restart the device: Check whether the water quality parameters (ammonia, nitrite, pH) are normal.
