Water change for new pup?

[fastfreddy]

When is it safe to do a water change for a new pup. She is a week old now and I haven't changed her water. How much is safe? Thanks in advance.

If the waste load is low I would do it once or twice a week like 30%. We do daily changes of 25% everyday in our system.

Do you think it's time now. She only started eating three days ago.

What size tank is she in? How many gallons what kind of filtration? What is she eating? More then likely you could wait longer but I would start doing it now it will not hurt the ray.

i would go ahead and do the first waterchange like mike said do like 30%
but one little ray in that tank could go longer i think too,
just do it freddy she'll be fine 1 week already your good!!!

She's in a 90g with a wet /dry system and eating brown worms.

i think she would be ok for a 30% change. Good luck with her.
