I have been super busy the past few weeks and went from weekly to bi weekly water changes with chemicals in my to offs.
Today I came home from working on one of my apartments all day to a dead clown loach. The other very sick.
Both had that white slimy look. I instantly jumped to water quality and slime coats.
Everything looked good but nitrates were at 40.
Did a 50% change and added prime, some easy balance as with every change, stress coat and some melafix just for hopes sake.
My real question is would this jump in only nitrates do this to two healthy loaches?
No other fish seem worried.
