My 1000gal Tank
- Thread starter FishDojo God
- Start date
well the only thing i can think of is, water chemistry, water temp, chemicals?, food, parasites? i dont know what else it could be or why they wouldnt survive.. are any still living? maybe the weaker ones just died off
I dont know if it s fair or true to say that it is because i raised the temperature.
Or it may be the massive rain and Ph drop. i think so.
But that happened:
http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=169626
Made a day of scrubing and saving Juv peacocks.
They are actually in a canvas tank.
another 4 died of transponding
So actually i do have 22 Juveniles peacock of 4 inches
11th of June bought 100 of 1 1/2 inch
14th of July bought 5o of 2 1/2 to 3 inches
about 1/6 alive or 5/6 dead...
... what shall i do?
Stop trying?..............Naw i m addicted.... even if it s a money loss and it s quite depressing it s better than to play my money on cards or drink booze and commenting about others life. Isn t it?
Soon as i can i ll go Bangkok and buy more , yes more and more til ? i get it.
Shall I try:
Stop raising them in recycled biological filter concrete tank?
Make an moveable roof over the tank, go Water medics every 10 days.
Force them to eat frozen shrimps soaked with vitamins and oxytetracycline 2 times a week
Don t count on biological filtration an make 75% water change every 3 days.
Raise them in mud pond in a net?
raise them in mud pond with air pump and water pump spraying in the net?
Take a distance course online at:

Any idea ?
I know the answer is somewhere on the server in all these threads and posts
Once i know the right procedure im gonna tattoo it on my legs and then when i ll die my grandsons would keep the skin and post it somewhere on the house (Thai stories like that).

R Evolution,
We transponded the juvies back in Tank.
Big rain yesteday night, we used the canvas to protect the main pond, and plank to cover filter tanks.
No loss this morning.
Water at 27c to 28c under canvas and 30c after 10 minutes.
Feed with artemias.
Going to pour some chemical against weeds and worm and balance ph.
This product as no details about name of chemicals involved, but it is used in food fish farming .
Will see effect on bio-filter ???
A professor from the royal fishery departement wants to visit us and take a look at the recirculating water pond system.
Would he drop me some Jungle perch fingerlings??

today i loose 3 fish in front of my eyes ???
One in the morning was swimming awkwardly, i tought he was cold 27-28c so i tried to raise the temp by lowering the water inlet in the tank and raising the shading green net up.
he didn t stop getting bad so in last resort i prepared a bath of magic medecine 10 cc for 10l for 1 minute , he survived the bath, but died 5 minutes after, with me trying to reoxygenate him like old style trout releasing (back and forth).
at twelve another one was swimming awkwardly so i thought he was hot and not enough oxygen so i raised the water inlet out of water and lowered the shading net.
hmm he didn t do it.
around four o'clock saw one swimming awkwardly and others hitting the surface like when they are hungry then i thought they were very hungry so i gave them artemias.
hmm no he didn t like them he don t even taste them.
he died
i did sump the filtration tanks a bit and pour a bit of new water (100l).
Took a look at 11pm, the rest of the herd was hitting swimming shrimps at the surface by the neon light.
Maybe a night i m gonna find Goldilocks sitting on the wall of the tank teaching monoculus how to get an attitude and drive their humpty dumpty caretaker crazy so they may reach their next life quicker.

I may have missed something but are your concrete tanks sealed with a coating over the concrete to keep anything from leaching out of the concrete into the water?
I always thought bare concrete was a nono for fishies, maybe I am wrong...
