I've never posted on this forum before though I have been a member for some time.
I am sorry if this is in the wrong section.
2 Months ago I discovered that one of my female Betta had developed a white stuff around her mouth. Well, being stupid as I was, I did not do anything about it. She did survive but she lost her upper lip.
Since it did not kill her I didn't think anything of it until about two weeks ago when I saw that another one of my girls (I have 4) was experiencing the same symptoms.
So, 2 days ago, my only source of fish medication got in Jungle Fungus Clear and I immediately bought it.
When I got home, I added 1 tablet to the aquarium that is 16-20 gallons (not entirely sure the size).
I waited two days and then did a 25% water change and have, earlier today, added 2 more tablets turning the water a slight neon green.
The girls LOVED the bubbles as did the cories (5 of them). They were utterly fascinated and floated near the medication watching.
The 3 Cardinals weren't very happy. I had a Cardinal death two months ago (around the time the mouth rot occured) and had another recent death which leaves me down to those three. Once I have money, I will be adding at least 4 more to the tank.
I also had 3 oto's but two mysteriously disapeared. I never even found their bodies which leads me to believe they were eaten.
As far as I know the aquarium is healthy other than the mouth rot because the 2 Bronze Cory have bred twice.
So here's my actual question!
I will be leaving tomorrow morning very early to go to France for 4 days (I live in Germany).
Should I expect to come home to dead fish because I did not change their aquarium water and left the medication in there for too long?
Also they won't be fed as I could not acquire a feeding stone or a food dispenser (I looked). I could not afford 30 euro for one unfortunately.
Thank you for reading this.
