    How often?

    I'm just curious to know how often everyone here cleans their Betta's tanks.

    I clean Malachai and Stanton's once or twice a week. Sometimes I hold out for a while when they've got a good bubble nest going, but then clean it when they've stopped building.

    I have Rupert in a self-cleaning tank at work, but I do add fresh water to it once a week.

    Once a week. I'd go nuts if I had to clean 7 tanks more often.

    Siam's gets cleaned about once or twice a week. Right now, he's got a HUGE bubble nest going, so we'll wait a little while before changing it again. I think he just got it changed.... Friday? can't remember. hehe.

    .

    My brother has a betta and he cleans it once a week. It depends on what kind of tank or bowl you have. We saw some and some of them needed to be cleaned more often.
