Good grief you would think either I would stop being stupid and listening to these people or they would hire people who know what they are doing!
I bought 3 pond plants. Was told that just putting the whole pot with dirt in my tank would be fine. Did that. Today my fish are dying. Called LFS, "Oh I probably wouldnt have done that. Thats a bad idea." WHAT!? And they cant replace my fish because "other factors beyond our control may be involved."
I had my suspicions when I saw the little green balls in the dirt but I thought they knew what they were doing and hey its meant for a pond. I am going to let it ride and see who survives. Honestly if nobody survives I will leave it empty for awhile. I dont know if the dirt caused a spike in parameters or if the fertilizer balls poisoned the water. Its irritating though. End of rant.
