Changing of bio-home monthly

[william_choo]

Hi,do I need to change and replace bio-home monthly,or leave the existing one on the tank to keep cultivating good bacteria?

You do not change out your bio filtration. Leave it in the sump.

It will be good if you can give them a good rinse in salt water occasionally to remove any unwanted dirt, uneaten food, etc that are trapped. Do it in a separate bucket before putting them back in the sump.

Just to add, better to empty water of the compartment where you place the bio-home before you remove it. Else you will lift up a lot of dirt.
