My triple reds have two day old fry in a 29 gallon tank. I've heared you shouldnt use conditioned water untill the fry are at least 3weeks old. How do you do frequent water changes without conditioning the water? I usually use prime to condition the water and seachem discus buffer to lower ph to match the tank.. Which is at 6.2

I've done regular water changes with week old fry with no problems. Most of my tanks are 20Ls but I have one 10g and have done the same in my old 29g. My water changes weren't huge though. Usually about 10-15% weekly. I also use prime with no problem.
