Seems like after 30 days the fry are pretty well off and can handle nsw changes, again this is research from others experiences. But for you it might be easier to use broodstock tank water for water changes because a) your larval tank water volume is very small and b) you are only trying to raise a few fry and not multiple tanks full of hundreds of fry. So for simplicity, as long as your broodstock water is of good quality, just use that water to change the larval tank water. For example change a gallon of water on the larval tank on wed. The broodstock tank should be able to handle the loss of a gallon with out any problems. Than do the same on the weekend when you do a small water change on your broofstock tank. Making sure to replace the water lost due to evap and the water used on wed. Either way it seems that consistent care and good husbandry is the key here. Again this is just what I am gathering from others experiences. Every situation is diferent for people.
