First off, good luck. Although you don't really need it. It IS a simple procedure and your doctor has probably done hundreds of them. He could do it if he was hung over (Not that he would).

Second, do a water change before you go under the knife. Just in case you don't come out of it, it'll give the next owner time to learn how to do it. (Just kidding) :p

Besides, it'll give you time to do a little bonding with your critters.

The fish tank should be good for a week. Also, if you feel compelled to do water changes anyway, you can do it in small increments such as a gal a day, using qt. size container remove and replace the water until you get a gal done.

I'm sure you'll be good to go soon!
