Hopefully I don't have any more complications, and they will be for sale in a month or so.....
 
its hard to say if u should isolate them or not... i always keep my pups in the same water that they were born for about 2 to 3 weeks b4 moving them.

i would deff put some filtration on their tank though...

like aquaman said check your nitrate and ph. i know w my tank the nitrates are very hard to keep down. u know what i think about drip systems so i wont go there...

GL!!
 
Setting up a drip on an allready established pond would be a pain (pump fed filter)....

Hoping to move by this winter so I really don't wanna mess with pond improvements as hopefully it will be time for a new, larger, and GREATLY improved one.

I don't check PH anymore..... It seems rock solid. No matter which tank in the house I pull water from OR if it's the tap, it's always within a few tenths.

Nitrate..... Err. I'm sure it's high. But BI-DAILY Wcs? I bet I'm allready dumping 300 gallons a DAY in there......

I'll see if I can't get some filtration on there tonight, have some Fluvals I may be able to "rig".

Just got word back from my girl as she picked up some Ghost Shrimp. Got one that's not eating, the other 2 trounced immediately.

I'll be ok with it as long as it stays ONE and the one refusing food snaps out of it.... :irked: (knock on wood)
 
Sorry to hear about the loss. Which did you lose, the nicer one in the first couple of pics?
I to feed usually later in the evening but always cleaned
any uneaten out before killing the lights. Always worried me cause I knew with work
it could be as long as 20 -24 hours till I got back to them.
Hope everything levels out for you with no more losses.
 
Thanks..... I knew when feeding at 1-2 am that it was going to be cleaned out by 7. Didn't think that was long enough to spoil.

Yup, nicer one in the first couple pics.

Thanks......
 
I wouldn't have thought it would spoil in 5-7 hours either.
I was afraid it was that one.
Like Trev said, if you don't move them I would definitely put some filtration directly on their tank.
 
Hey need an Update on the pups. Did you get the one feeding yet? Hope all is well.
