First Water Change

[xboxlive2020]

I started a slatwater tank 2.5 weeks ago. I was wondering when I should do my first waterchange. It is 10 gallons. What is in it is in my signature. I have been filling up water to keep the tank level constant due to evaporation. Any ideas? Thanks!

Someone told me after 4 weeks, until the tank finishes cycling. What do you thinK?

Are you topping off with saltwater or RO water?
What is your salinity, ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates?

Well, I plan to buy pre-treated water. The aquarium store employee said nothing was detectable.

For the water, I use freshwater to top off. Because salt doesn't evaporate.

Usually 20-25% water changes per month are the norm. Thats depending on your specific setup and if any problems arise.

Well, this is a fish-only 1- gallon tank. What would be a good idea for that? Thanks!
