Orange asked: I just set the tank up a week and a half ago. I am a first time fish owner. I actually got the fish that are in it with the tank from someone else. When I got it I had to take absolutely everything out of it and scrub it. With only water of course. It was covered in algae it was a quarter of an inch thick on absolutely everything. So I’ve been told that you should siphon out approx. 5 gallons but I forget how often. Thanks!
