Temperature for bichirs?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
OMG, I have lost my biggest and last delhezi, this is the worst fortnight of my fishkeeping history. I have come to the conclusion that it was a temperature spike that created an internal bacterial infection. I am so gutted, all I have now are sens.
 
Had you tested your water for ammonia, nitrIte and nitrAte? Warmer temps cause ammonia to be more toxic, and nitrItes cause blood-poisoning, and warmer temps would make this worse as well.
 
All paramters absolutely perfect, I do plenty of water changes, lost just the delhezis - nothing else, not even the sens???? WTH! So gutted right now, the big girl was almost a foot long too :(
 
Cook it and eat it?
