Hello friends,
What is the longest between water changes you have ever done for a cichlid tank? 120 Gal.
Thanks!
On my 90 gallon cichlid tank that I used to have I'd routinely change 40% of the water because I kept it heavily stocked.

When on well water I would do 30% to 40% Weekly water change, every so often do a 50% water change.
Now on City water so only do 10% to 15% weekly water change.
Have also reduced stocking level of my tank.
I was waiting for more responses, but I will share my experience.
April 25, 2023, it will be exactly one year since I did the last water change in my 120Gal with three large cichlids.
Observations: very healthy fish, excellent water parameters.
My house went through a complete remodelling with no access to the fish tank, so I could only manage to get there once every two weeks to feed them. I may get criticized here, but I've never had a better tank in 23+ years than what I have now.
