As a general rule of thumb, you should clean the tank at least once every two to three weeks. However, you may need to clean the tank more often if you have a lot of newts in the tank or if you are using a substrate that is prone to becoming dirty.
When you clean the tank, be sure to remove all of the old water and substrate. You should also clean the tank walls and decorations. You can use a mild soap or a cleaning solution specifically designed for aquariums. Be sure to rinse the tank thoroughly after cleaning.
You can help keep your newts' tank clean by:
- Feeding the newts once or twice a day.
- Removing any uneaten food after a few hours.
- Cleaning up any feces or other waste.
- Cleaning the filter regularly.
- Doing water changes regularly.
