Hello,
Yesterday just as I was finishing cleaning the filter on my 55 gallon tank my 3 yo son dumped in an entire box of fish food. I was justing doing the filter cleaning so I immedialty started to siphon all the food out, this caused about a 50% water change. this morning the fish don't look well at all , one molly has died, she was very old so I wasn't too surprised. But the water is really cloudy. Because I just cleaned the filter yesterday, it's a Rena Cannister type, and did such a massive water change I'm hesitant to do another water change.
I have 6 chiclids, 2 clown loach, a pleco, a cory catfish, 2 empeoror tetras and one molly. Should I go buy a small filter to hang over the side? It's so sad to see them distressed. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks
