That depends on how dirty its getting. If the water level is rising towards the top of the sock then its time to change

Not sure if that would be feasible or work. You didn't mention if you have hang on overflows or built in ones. If they are hang ones. get yourself some acrylic sheets and cut some lids for the open section on top. Makes a big difference in the splashing noise

I have been running 2 Eheim Jager heaters with a Ranco controller for several years with no problems yet. They have been very reliable for me.

Not sure what that additive would do to a protein skimmer

They are definitly looking for more light

Northstar is correct, They are gorgeous fish, but after trying my luck with two different species of leopards, I would only get another one from an established system. IMO, It's just not fair to the fish to have one and watch it waste away and not be able to help it
