The Rapps Orino thread!!!

[Idealconcepts]

Well i came home from school anxious to see if the ich had cleared up. I walk into my room and see four little orinos floating upside down covered with ich. i throw an air stone in there and leave them alone. after a couple of hours i check them and they're dead.

That sucks.

Of my two that survived only one is eating and the other doesn't look too good, I dunno if he is gonna make it.

for eveyrones orinos that are dieing. bust the heat up the 86 and add about a table spoon per 5 gallons. ich cant survive over the temp of 85 so let the heat do the work. more natural then meds and salt.
i used this method. ich was gone in 3days.

Well....I've been up at reno for work and haven't seen da four orinos for a week now
Only saw them for about a day and left....bumped up heater and hoped for the best
No salt or water changes and the wifey said they still eating like crazy...when asked bout
White spot, she said they don't look like they have any so I'm hoping it is gone.
Returning home tomorrow and I'll update

the ich on my 2 is just about all cleared up, they have a spot or 2 on each side of them. they only eat 2-3 blackworms each per day and the worms are about .5" long is this enough? they wont take to the freshwater shrimp i tried. im going to try the crushed krill and bloodworms and see how they take to that

My 10 are in PERFECT condition with no ick and ate bloodworms minutes after acclimation.

Not sure why everyone's orinos are dying so quick. Are they in established, cycled tanks or were these tanks thrown together last minute to accomodate the orinos?

But you do. You bought fish willingly, knowing the size and price of the fish, and then complained about it after you got what you asked for. If buying something you don't want isn't throwing away money, I'm not sure what is. I apologize if it seems like I'm attacking you, but in your case, I just don't believe your negative statements towards Jeff are justified. Just my last opinion on the subject.
