    I think I have some of those microfiber cloths. If its a half and half should I change half of the water or all of the water at once?

    Sam,
    I add when low between full water changes. I simply keep a bunch of de-chlorinated gallons ready and waiting.
    I have 1/2 and 1/2 (s) as well (heated/ filtered about 4" deep) --- I do full water changes and replace with de-chlorinated about every 2 weeks.
    I would rather do that than cycle it like a fish tank.
    ( water in one tank is 4" deep and 18x 18 " --- the other is 4" deep and 18 X 9 )
    The water in my viv(s) is covered w/ clear plexi. The filter out-put bubbles over the top of the plexi through a little hole.
    So nothing really ever falls in ( including the red eyes) as they are NOT good swimmers! Four inches of water would be too deep for them.
