Karma Babies

Karma/Kahn have free-swimming fry in their tank. There are no other tankmates. I usually do her waterchanges on Friday, about a 25%. Her nitrates run around 10 weekly.

In the past she's eaten her fry, so I was going to leave her alone with this batch to see if she "gets the hang of raising them".

Since her nitrates are so low, would it be okay if I skipped her waterchange tomorrow to decrease the "irritation" factor or should I just do a small one (10%) to put nutrients back in the tank?

I would leave it BB, no point in ticking her off and helping her along with eating the fry.

Thank you

I'm not even looking in the tank except from a few feet away just trying to keep her calm. She's such a nervous little thing
