I clean the sponges and filter floss every 2 weeks. I don’t mess with the matrix unless it looks like it needs to be rinsed probably every 6 months or so. Dirty filters are nitrate factories. I know why I clean my filters. I know it’s important. You either listen to the people who don’t have the “energy/time” to ensure their fish are healthy and have emaculate water quality…or, you listen to me and another guy who say you should clean your filters regularly. I follow this guy on YouTube “Kaveman Aquatics” and he just did a video on not cleaning his fx6 for a year. Perhaps if Kevin cleaned his filters regularly his nitrates wouldn’t be through the roof in a week’s time. In the case of dirty filters, use your common sense.
