I'd recommend at least 25% water changes/week. That is a big bioload.

Ya. I guess I have to buy a new bucket for them, so can probably do at least 50% weekly for a few weeks.

I have a picture in my mind of a bunch of fish all squished against the glass with fins and things sticking out fo the top of the tank .As for whaterchanges i would just regularily test nitrates and do waterchanges acordingly to keep them at a level you deem aceptable .The thing that would worry me with that many fish would be O2 saturation , but you must be running a good skimmer so it should be ok. +1 on a picture , bet it looks awsome.

Ok, a bit overstocked. No skimmer, so what do ya think would be a good water change schedule?
