Red Zebra Holding part 2

[zipperfly58]

My red zebra is definitely holding, should I continue weekly water changes and rearrange tank rock structure while she is still holding. What about vacuuming the gravel.

Thank you.

I do water changes and substrate vacuums when I have holding females in the tank. I try not to scare them or stress them too much, but they're used to it happening. When fry are present, I still do it, but try to avoid siphoning in the area the fry are hiding so I don't suck them up.
I only re-arrange the tank decor when aggression becomes a problem or when adding new fish. You shouldn't need to do it weekly.
