Hi guys I just got 12 neons on Saturday and since then 9 have died :'(
I've been going back to replace the dead fish (but I'm done ) obviously something is wrong with these fish !
I tested the water they came in from the LFS and it had 0.25 ammo and 10-20 trate.
I do my wc on Sunday so I did them yesterday and also another huge one when this morning I found 2 dead neons and I found one about 5 mins ago
I assumed when the death started occurring that there was an ammo spike from adding too many at once
I added 12 neons , 6 danios, 2 clown loaches
I have 3 filters running on this tank so there should be more than enough BB
It's a 45 g corner tank all other fish are fine including shrimp/ snails
Thought these guys were supposed to be hardy, but this is ruining how beautiful they are for me
