Finally got the tonga branch situation taken care of and it should ship soon. My tank has already been running for a month! When should I do my first water change? I have always read to wait until the cycle is done. Last time I checked my water levels I think my tank was at the peak of its cycle. Should I wait for the water change after I add the tonga since that will most likely recycle the tank?

I'd do one if your ammonia reaches 1.0 or more. That way you don't kill off too many critters on the rock.

What if my ammonia doesnt get that high? Then should I wait until the cycle is done?

If the ammonia hits 1.0 or higher then I would do one. If not, once everything has leveled out it would be a good time to do one before you add fish.
IMO 5gal isn't going to do a whole lot. You're going to want to do one in the neighborhood of 20-30gal.

20-30 gallons per week or just for the first one after the cycle? I think I meant to say 10g a week which is close to 10%.
