I have a 150 saltwater optimax I got with my trophy in 2004. How often should the zinc anodes be changed?

Re: Zinc Anodes

Generally, change anodes when they are about 50% eroded.

Remember to tap each anode with a small wrench, I like to use my 4" Crescent, to check the solidity of the anode as they can erode honeycomb-like, looking fine but not actually much material left.
