how often do you clean your front glass?

ok it seems the healthy dose of nutrients is between every other day and weekly.

thanks everyone for the input.

Inside or outside. I have a two year old that loves the tank. I get hand prints, kiss marks and all sorts of stuff that the term "bio film" would not come close to describing.

So outside of the display twice daily

Inside the glass every couple of days to once a week, only after the kids go to sleep. There is a fascination with kids and magnets that goes beyond all reason. They won't lug a bucket of water around to help with a water change but break out a magnet to clean and they will come out of the woodwork... go figure.

It's a small frag, thus small polyps, but it's no longer receded into its skelly, and getting about 1cm polyp extension. I'm gonna classify that as "happy"! I monitor it to death, I'll keep you updated

Just want to clarify the above was a google find, not my tank, haha

that used to happen every time id frag a goni. the key is to dip it right after fragging and then once or twice a week after that for a few weeks. ive done that a couple times with decent success. that's not to say there weren't casualties but the survival rate jumps way up.
