Hi & thanks for reading this
I want to set myself up a schedule for regular tank maintenance.
I know to make 25% water changes weekly but I have a question:
Should I vacuum the gravel every time I make a water change weekly??
& if I do, won't that be bad for my plant roots? or is it ok to uproot the plants to vacuum once a week?
OR
Is it ok if I just up root them every other water change to do a good vacuum??
I couldn't find any info to answer my questions, so I thought maybe you could help
If I meerly vacuum around the plants, there wouldn't be much gravel to vacuum as I do have alot of plants.
I have a 55 gallon , it's not heavily planted as in over crowed, but I pretty much have a lot of plants in there.

grasses
moss
a few others that I dont' know the name of..
Thanks
