Hello,
I've been perusing the forums ever since I started my freshwater tanks. Now I seem to have a problem and I am hoping that somebody can help me.
I have a 10 gallon tank with no heater. The ambient temp in the room is around 70 degrees. Suddenly we had 4 fish get very lethargic and turn this kind of milky white color. It's almost like they have lost their color. I have been checking the water chemistry and it is where it should be. The tank has a "bubble wall" to provide aeration and an appropriate size filter. Everything was going so good for about a few months and then it all fell apart. What could be wrong with my tank?
We just put two new fish in the tank after letting it sit empty for a week, and the new fish are exhibiting the same problem after only a few hours.
I have a 55 gallon tank that is running great, and the only difference between the two is the heater. I'm at a loss...
Thanks for any advice that anybody can provide.
