It's always a big question on how often to clean canister filters, a lot depends on the number size of fish, feeding frequency, etc I find the best method is to see how much stuff is trapped in the filter and base cleaning frequency on that along with test results

Couldn't agree more Using a canister for mechanical filtration will necessitate opening it up and cleaning it frequently A pre-filter could theoretically keep you from having to open and clean a canister more than say once per year or so

The filter was brand new about 3 months ago So is it safe to say that you need to clean it about every 3 months? The amount of time that passes before you must clean your canister filter depends on the size of your aquarium and its bio load
- Sponge prefilter, how often is filter cleaning needed?
Fluval edge prefilter I clean maybe once a month, usually I clean it every 2-3 months when I see it's impeding the flow to my canister They stay pretty clean As far as my actual filter filter, it's just eheims or canisters full of bio media with a coarse and fine pad I switch out the pads when they start to clog and that's every few months (due to the fine fluval sponge prefilter)

I clean my canister when the outflow trickles I placed a pre-filter on the intake so it takes many months to get the filter pads dirty
