new ray need id and help

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
well last night i saw a little curling starting and this morning she was folded in half and dead...my other 2 females are fine...they have not eatten that i can see, but they do seem to hunt from time to time so they should eat soon...i will still dose the tank with a de-fungus as it looks like they have alittle on the tips of their tails...not much, but enough for me to dose the tank to kill all the possibility of a fungus outbreak...
 
Make sure whatever you use to kill fungus doesn't also kill the biofilter. Some definitely do, maybe there are some that don't.

Sux you lost another.
 
sorry about the loss. seems too common with retics not your fault though as you tried. hopefully the other two eat soon. how is your male doing btw?

thanx, i got and put in jungle fungus clear...i predisolved it first...i got it cause it is supost to cure bacteria-related conditions aswell and i figured it couldn't hert to try some anti-infection...as the new rays have some clouded eyes...

thanx and concidering i order twice from a "sh*ty" ray sorce and had only 2 losses out of 5 rays i would call that being ahead still...also the fact that retics uphere just come in as teacup misc rays and are $80 each... at the same size and condition, that i got these in at...they were $34 each if i average it out for my 5 rays, 2 aros, and pbass...so if i had the same results here with my lfs rays that would be a finatial loss of $64 insted of $160...he is doing great so i still have the chance to breed them so i consider myself ahead and still in the game...
