Grrrrrr...
As the title of the thread states, I'm starting to lose Demasoni left and right. I've found 3 dead in the last 4 days, and the worst part is I'm not sure why.
Lets rewind to about a month ago. I was outgrowing my 75 gallon at a rapid pace as my Demasoni population was growing at a alarming rate. In general my demasoni were not very aggressive compared to some stories I've read. I picked up a used 125 gallon and the move went well, I don't think I lost a single fish. I went with pretty much the same setup but have since added a used wet/dry unit because I got a pretty decent deal on it. Nothing else has changed.
Fast forward up to today, everything appears normal in the tank, Demasoni are still reproducing, even the new fish to the tank look good. But there have been too many deaths too close together to be coincidence.
No apparent damage to the dish, no fin rot, gills look good. Fish are eating like champs. I've lost females and now my dominate male tonight. Aggression the same it's always been, if not less due to the larger tank. It's too late to test the water tonight, I'm bushed after a long day today. It's the first thing on the list for tomorrow.
Sry guys....I had to vent.
