try and fish out any bits you can and do a water change id go with like a 25% change now then another 25% in a few hours and then another like 5 hours later to be safe and watch your ammonia

would it be better to just do a 50% water change than 2 25% water changes?

Indeed, I would do a 50% water change, run some activated carbon as soon as possible - you will be suprised, the tank will probably cope better than you think, so don't panic

the only reason i siad 2 25 % ones is if he has a ro machine then it would be better to do 25 % in half the time then another half the time again so its a liitlle relief

if that makes sence

if not i mean
like

it would take say 2 hours for enough water for a 50% and only7 an hour to do 25% arr ive confused myself now lol

 

[jtnova13]

i got you. I was thinking they had RO water laying around in case of emergencies

Anyway, any update on how this turned out?
