Irregardless of anything else, a partial (30 percent) water change every week is a good idea, and certainly no less than every two weeks. If you have an undergravel filter, vacuuming a portion of the gravel during water changes ensures that no toxic debris will build up. Avoid vacuuming the entire bottom, as this will starve the bacteria which digest the waste products. If using a floss/charcoal filter, change the filter elements every two weeks, and vacuum the entire bottom once a month.

Should you leave algae for an algae eating fish if you're cleaning the tank?
Generally it is a good idea to leave some algae. However, if you want to clean the tank very thoroughly and you are worried about the amount of algae left for your bottom-feeders, the best option is to buy algae discs. They are fairly inexpensive and you can find them almost anywhere that sells fish. They're located next to the fish food and usually a few discs will keep your bottom-feeders from going hungry until algae naturally grows back.

Snails are bottom feeders so they will usually eat debris at the bottom of a tank, as well as some algae if they come upon it. They can usually eat leftover flakes from regular fish feeding, but you may want to drop in a few pellets for them here and there to make sure that they have adequate food. If you have catfish or any other bottom feeders, they will eat these as well.

Cleaning and disinfecting (with bleach solution 1 part bleach to 9 parts water) should be done monthly. Old seed and waste matter on or under the feeder must removed.Feeders should be attached to windows or placed more than 30 feet from windows so when birds are frightened they have a chance to avoid the glass.If you notice a natural predator such as a Cooper's Hawk hanging around, remove the feeder for a few weeks. The predator will move on.Outdoor cats are a major problem, killing millions of wild birds annually. If you have outdoor cats, especially feral cats, in your neighborhood, then you should not put out bird feeders or hang them high out of reach of cats. Some people put no climb fences around their feeders.Most Birds visit feeders to supplement their diets and do not become completely dependent on feeders because they require a variety of foods to meet their dietary needs. However, if you keep feeders going through winter, do not cease filling feeders mid winter or during harsh weather as birds that are in the "habit" of visiting feeders, will have an easier time finding food.
