Not really. Plants consume nitrates, so constant water changes to remove
nitrates are unnecessary. I haven't done a water change to my 20g long
tank in over a year. All the plants in there are growing like weeds and
the shrimp reproduce like crazy. Crustaceans are sensitive to nitrates,
so I guess the plants are doing a good job consuming them.
