Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Hello,
I recently decided to add four platys to my 29 gallon tank, which currently houses an angelfish and a pleco. A week into quarantine, a platy died. The other three look ok still, didn't notice anything obviously wrong with the dead one, except that it was dead. What do I do now? How long should I keep them all in quarantine? Should I treat the tank with anything?
On a side note, are there good places to buy fish off the internet? I've got like an 80% mortality rate on fish from the local petsmart.
Also, any ideas on small fish that will coexist with the angelfish are welcome. I was thinking tetras but I don't want the angelfish's fins to get nipped.
thanks
