Hey friends,
I just had a aquarium catastrophe and I don't know where i went wrong.
To start with I had a bi-colored Royal Dotty, a blue tang, and a three spotted Damsel. +crabs + starfish
Starting two weeks ago I picked up some blue legged hermits because over time my little crabby population had dwindled. It was a new aquarium shop that I don't normally go to but it was closer to my house. About a week after that my bi-colored royal dotty got sick and died. I assumed that it was some kind parasite that rode in on the crabs. So I went to the aquarium shop that i prefer and they advised me to get a cleaner shrimp and raise the water temp that i had from 74 to 78.
I dropped my shrimp in the tank that he was very popular right away. Everything appeared to be fine. The fish were eating and swimming with more energy.
Just about 15 minutes ago I went to check on them and they we dead. Not struggling or gasping but D-E-A-D.
Sorry for the Novel but does anyone know WTH happened?
Regards
