He was not doing well last week but seemed to be perking up. First fish of mine that stopped eating for a while but didn't die right away. I had hope. Then dummy me fed them yesterday and forgot to turn the filter back on. Came home about 6 hours later to my mistake. Everyone else made it but the bolivian got flushed this morning. It is possible he was going to die anyway, but I will never know.
My question is this: What affect does the filter being off have? Could that alone have killed this fish? What happens to the environment when the filter is off for a while?
I am still relatively new to fishkeeping and prone to dumb mistakes. Need to learn from them if I can. Thanks.
