Default 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?

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.

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

Sometimes dont feed on water changing days.
