a few short and simple questions regarding fish addition.
so, tomorrow i have the morning and afternoon off, and don't want to be unproductive. so i figured a stop to some fish stores is in order.
first question: i added two corys last friday, is it okay to put more fish in tomorrow (wednesday)? or should i give it until this friday (black friday... gonna be crazy)? second question: if that is okay, would it be okay to do a water change (about 20%) before i get the new fish? or should i stick with my "established" water and then do a water change 3-4 days after i get the new fish? any input helps guys. thanks a bunch!

Re: a few short and simple questions regarding fish addition.
The water change is definitely fine. I'm no expert but I'm also pretty sure that that is plenty of time, just don't add too many obviously.

Re: a few short and simple questions regarding fish addition.
I think you're fine to do the PWC and get fish today. Just be sure to drip acclimate your new fish! (If you're not sure how to do it, there's a sticky somewhere on the freshwater forum).

Re: a few short and simple questions regarding fish addition.
thanks for the tips guys, that's basically the same response i got from people in other places. and don't worry, i definitely drip acclimate all my fish, about another hour and they should be good to go in the main tank!
