And yet you still haven't tested your water. My additude? Your the one getting all cry baby defensive over what you think you posted. Test you water and keep the issue in one thread, seems logical don't it?

My lfs ordered me a chlorine test kit it should be here tomorrow. I have never tested my tap becuz I always treat with prime. Normally I use a 30g bucket to refill the water I fill the bucket with water at 80 degrees treat with prime wait about five minutes then add water to tank and repeat the process about 4 times. I asked other members and they told me to get a auto fill and drain that attached to the sink and refill the tank that way and if I treated the hole tank with prime it should de chlorinate automatically and the fish will be fine so that's all I did. What do you suggest I do? do you disagree with this method?

you call a person a "dick" and then expect to get answers/advice from them? LoL, good luck with that.. Maybe FishRetard will give ya some answers, he seems to have recognized your plea for help.

Enough. The name calling and insults will not be permitted here.

OP, I suggest you take a moment to read the sticking in the Freshwater Diseases and Health Issues section to get an idea of what information is necessary to treat common fish issues. There is a Sticky to guide you in the initial posting.

If the issue arose after adding prime and then filling the tank with water direct from the tap, then I suggest you refrain from this until you have the chance to test the water parameters coming directly from the faucet. It sounds like that might be the case.
