How do you a tank?

when you clean a fish tank you should only do a 5 or 10% water change. You should wipe any algae off the glass, filter of objects in the tank using a new cloth as any soaps that get in the water will kill the fish. After this the water may be cloudy but the filter should clear this within a few hours. You should never do a 100% water change as this much change will overwhelm the fish and could kill them.

How+often+should+change+the+water+filter+in+a+Cuisinart+Coffee+Maker%3F?

You should change the filter once every 60 days for the best results. Usually it depends on use. I think after about 50 pots of coffee its time to change the filter. Filtered water really improves the taste of the coffee so I would say sooner is better than later.

Do you need to filter the water in the tank of an axolotl?

Yes. It is nessesary to have a filter to keep the water moving and oxygenated. It is also helpful because the water's movement mimics the movement of water in the axolotl's natural habitat. Just make sure that the water does not move too quickly because it could be harmful. If the axolotl is not moved around by the filter and you can not see a current in the water (except above the filter and in its immediate area) then the filter is on too high. Be sure to change the filter regularly as much as needed. Every axolotl is different and thus the filter will become dirty at different times.
