Might be a stupid question, but what do people do for their water change? Are you changing out 10-20% based on total volume (display + sump) or just display volume? Thanks!!

Unless you have a huge sump, I always assume the two to be about the same amount anyways. I figure the DT minus displacement from rock evens out with the addition of the additional water from the sump.
