Trouble in paradise

[abortedsoul]

so obviously you dont know what i was gonna say.... now go do some serious large water changes... flush the tank to make sure there is no trace of it left...

I knew what you were going to say. Fairly obvious secret ingredient.

I'm so sorry about your female; that is terrible news.

I'm glad to hear that they are all active. If you are still having trouble with a cycle, try adding media from another tank as well as possibly using something that supplements bio. Some zeolite or turbostart would probably help with the ammonia situation; the zeo for the short term, the turbo for the long term.

I am not a believer in medicating unless its the last resort but I have had good general luck with aquarisol to kill free swimming parasites in my tanks. Best of luck

I hate to say it but where would be the best place to cut, to attempt to get pups out? i see movement on both female motoros, but they are in pretty bad shape. Both just sit there ..... If the time comes i would like to attempt a c section.

man that stinks..best of luck, i hope they turn around for you..

 

[skynoch]

Hell I feel for you. How far along are the motoros?

 

[turkeyboy85]

first one is due middle of july, so pups have the posibility to make it, the other one i didnt even know was pregnant .... so i doubt those ones would make it, but its still worth the try for me

Are you using water conditioner for your water changes or aged water like dw said?
I know it helped when I did my waterchanges for my sick rays without prime and I used aquasafe premixed in buckets instead.
Did you try carbon in your filters also? This also helped I believe.
I really don't have anything I can think of to help that you don't allready know. I hope your motoros pull thru.
