What would be a good water change schedule for these little guys?
I personally do partial wc's every other day, some breeder's change water every day for ultimate growth.
What would be a good water change schedule for these little guys?
How much should I change out? They're currently in a 2.5 gal. I was thinking just a half gallon daily.
I'm just going to use water from my 210. It already has the chemicals in it and I change it daily. Most of the fish are below 5" so the nitrates don't go up much at all. The water in my 210 is basically tap water other than the fact that it's dechlorinated and I add chemicals to increase alkalinity.That will be fine, don't forget your dechlorinator.![]()

I use that water for all of my water changes for the other tanks. It is easier to use that than carrying a 5 gallon bucket downstairs and then adding chemicals. Along with that it puts less work on my wc pump.Ok that is even better don't have to worry about chlorine, and ph.

I didn't see any fry swimming around this morning. I guess I was just too late to the party and they past.
At least I'll get another go once those other eggs hatch. This time I'll be a little more prepared.
