I need to do like an 80% water change to get ride of the tannins. I put the wood on left in a few weeks ago. The tanks been running since 2020.
Looks fantastic! What fish do you have in there? And what do you like to feed them? :)
My tank was pretty heavily tannined. I did a few 25%s and one 90% and that cleared it up remarkably. There's still some tannins, but my tank is clearing up a lot.
That header pic is when it was bad. This pic is after the 90% change (without fish in it, I cleaned it before introducing them)
Thanks! I have guppies and zebra danios. I feed them frozen blood worms and bug bites but some times I change things up.
