Lost some fish last night.. /:

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
sorry your fish died dude, that sucks :(

i would do a 50% water change every day and test the water everyday to monitor how things are going, and with such a large bio load an airstone or some surface agitation would be a good idea.

Unless I missed something you don't have an ammonia problem but a nitrate problem. big difference.... You may want to look into getting some Purigen also.

Will do. But i'll prolly just point the FX5 more upward.
 
Will you please retest all of the levels (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate ect) and post them so we can know 100% whet you suit right now. And please post pics of all the readings like you did with the nitrate. Then we can tell you what you ned to do for sure! You are obviously trying to learn do don't be discouraged by mean comments!
 
I had a Raphael live inside a big conch seashell for 2 days once with a few drops of water after I closed a tank and didn't know he was there. In some regards, they are extremely hardy.

Gars, Raphaels, Plecos and Shovelnose can live with almost no oxygen in the water, Channels need a bit more as do Pictus....

I'm not an expert, but if you were to turn off your filter... that is about the order they would die from lack of oxygen. Could that tie in?
 
Still at school! Leaving in like 2 minutes and i'll reply to everyone!
