  • i have a question not only for theliddlefishdocter but anyone who is an expert on fish. when changing the water do i remove all the plants or will they die if i remove them?

  • You shouldn't ever have to change all the water, and if you have to remove the plants, be very careful with their roots. Otherwise, it is better not to remove the plants if possible. You should never change more than 50% of your water at any time unless of some catastrophe.
