Change water after feeding or wait.
 

Hi all senior

When is the appropriate time to cw? Straight after feeding or wait 2-3 hours until Aro pop? I normally change after 1-2 hour as I heard if change straight after feeding will upset the Aro digestion. Is it true? Some Aro breeder said best is wait for one day after feeding then cw already don't feed for 1 day next day then feed. Got so many pattern! What is your theory?

I would change before feeding. :)

The main issue is the induced stress during WC. Some fishes may puke or bloat.

For me, I prefer WC few hrs or the next day after feeding to remove oil etc.. fm the water.

:D bro, i wc daily before feeding. Feeding commences 2 hrs after wc.

No issue to the aro.

I have 3 aros in separate tanks.

i feed my fishes daily, once a day. the day that i water change , i will just skip the feeding and resume back with normal routine the following day.

I usually space at least 12 hours between water change and feeding sessions.

Sometimes dont feed on water changing days.

On water change day I feed early morning. Change water in afternoon then no more feeding till next day.

For me,
I aso water change everyday
Feeding every night
I hv 6 aros in a single 422 tank :D

:D wow! 6 in a 422.

What are the size of the 6?
