Don't get intimidated!
Water changes are easy! You only want to replace 10% to 20%. You take the big tub (garbage can..mark it FISH ONLY) I mentioned and fill it with RO water, heat it up with a heater, then add your salt according to the measures it has on the package...place a power head in the tub to help keep it mixed, wait 24 hours...remove some of the water from the tank and add the new mixed water back into it, using the tubing and pump to make it easy on your back.
Some do it more often, others less...I do it about once every month or two. I got to the point as I look at my tank, I know when it's time to do it.
