How often you scrape your tank?

Just a quick question.
How often do you scrape your tank. Not clean with the magnet, but get in there and scrape the front glass to get the build up your magnet cleaner wont..

At water changes when I see something.

I don't get much buildup as I magnet pretty much every other day. But I do scrape the back every few months and take that time to get the line at the sandbed and around the top trim.

Once a week I scrape the bottom of the glass where it meets the sand and I will also scrape my overflow. Otherwise I use the magnet as needed (every couple days depending on my feeding habits).

magnet every day, even if you don't see anything, it still gets rid of the film. If you magnet, you shouldn't have to scrape. Areas where your magnet can't reach, weekly. But personally I don't have that problem. Magnet gets into everywhere.

I use the magnet every day on the front 3 sides. I do the back glass twice a week with a razor.

I use the scraper once a month to get the back glass and the edges/corners my magnet does get very good on the front and sides.

Magnet I use every 2-3 days

I also use the magnet everyday. The back I scrape once a week, when doing the water change.
