Looks decent, keep up water changes!

I do them every 5 days

Nice, that’s solid 👌 every 5 days should keep things really stable. What size changes are you

5 gallon should I do less?

This looks great! I might try this myself.

I run my 28gal on a HOB filter

Do you run a skimmer?

You should be fine. I’m running a hob filter on my 20 long and everything is doing great! Just keep up with water changes and keep your parameters stable.
