How much water should be changed for a King Kamfa

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
As long as temperature and parameters are about the same, you can't over do water changes.

I agree with this. Some people may have toxic things coming out of their tap so big frequent wc's may be harmful. To me that's the only way you could overdue it if params are the same like mentioned

My kk's get 50% wc about every 3 or 4days. I have a couple hob filters on those tanks, so I kinda need to from the moderate filtration & frequent feedings

Yeah this doesn't work for someone like me who doesn't check their parameters.
All I worry about is heat, and my API salt and Stress Coat Plus keeps everything in check.

How often you feed? What size tanks are the fish in? And can you post pics??? :popcorn:

I have read 50% a day on fry tanks is ok... I use API water conditioner

Assuming the water source is not contaminated. No. As long as the TDS, ph, or temperature don't swing too greatly. If it's been a very long time since your last water change and your water is filthy then you shouldn't try a huge change because of a possible huge shift in these values. I personally do 70-80% frequently (multiple times weekly). Because so frequent the water chemistry doesn't shift much. If less frequent then smaller volume changes might be better to not cause huge swings in values. TDS shock is the main fear.
