thanks...also, how often should i be changing the filter (charcoal filter?) ? Will changing the filter affect any levels in the thank, like the SG?

I do not use any carbon in my FW/BW tanks. I rinse out the sponge about every other week & change the filter floss monthly. I use Aquaclear HOB filters.
