I have a 29Gal Planted tank which has lost 3 tiger barbs in the last 10 days. The only change I can think of in the last 2 weeks is that I started adding Seachem Flourish (1/2 cap 2x a week). Here are the details:
29gal Planted tank
55W PC light
currently have 12 Tiger Barbs, 4 Cories, 2 Clown Plecos, 1 Red Gourami, 2 Apple Snails
DIY CO2 into a Jungle labs Fizz factory chamber (Sugar Yeast mix)
Dosing 1/2 cap FLourish 2x a week
PH 7.8
Nitrites - 0
Nitrates - 20ppm
Amonia - was up a tiny bit from 0, I think it was .2 (it second bar on the AP test kit)
did a pwc after the first 2 died (40%) third died yesterday after 2 days since the pwc.
I initially thought the first 2 died as a result of a a bully Gourami who was removed on Saturday and traded for 3 green tigers, but since he is gone a third has died, so maybe he didn't kill anything, he was a bully however so he had to go.
so changes in the last 2 weeks are:
Started Seachem Flourish, Removed 1 Blue Gourami, added 3 Green Tiger Barbs. The fish count at the top is the current total.
TIA
