WCs

Completely variable. It debends on bioload/ stocking levels, feedind and filtration.
Personally I do 25-90% once a week for all my set-ups Depending on their size(larger get smaller changes). But I filter my tanks and stock them so that this rate and amout of turnover fits each one (i.e. once a week for all of them).

 

[Megatron]

3 + times per week roughly 25%.

 

[StreetCypher]

50-60% every 7-10 days, depending on how busy i am.
They're all grow out tanks with various sized bichirs.
