Hello all
Question...I have had 1 rosy barb, 1 cherry barb, 2 guppies and 1 platy for about 4-5 weeks now---just about finished cycling ( -nitrites have really gone down the last couple of days). All of the sudden, the rosy barb has been freaking out, darting and acting like he's scared when you walk up to the tank...up until yesterday all the fish would come running to the front of the tank each time I walked up to it like little beggars wanting to be fed ( not that they got it mind you). I don't undertand why he's done that all a sudden. When he freaks, all the fish freak with him as he has always seemed to be the "leader of the pack". There is 0 ammonia, 2 nitrites, and 20 nitrates. PH is ideal and same with all other test. In fact water quality is at the best it has been since first setting up. Any idea's what's going on? Nothing has changed. Only my husband, myself and daughter. No one window taps, has scared them at anytime to my knowledge. Any help on this one? :?
