    Everyone probably has their own choice here ..

    Since Im changing everyone over from RO water to tap water my water changes are small for the 1st week. Maybe a gallon, just enough to get the poop out. After that point I start increasing it to about 5 gallons a pop. I only had 40 babies and mom in a 29 so I wasnt pushing the water changes to hard.

    If you can get away with good sized water changes I would probably recommend that. Just make sure your not stressing mom and dad to much since they might eat the kids.

    You can see pics of everyone in my thread a little further down.

    Peace,
    Roger
