Greetings,
I have a 58 gallon plant tank with a variety of different fish. They include 4 German Rams, 2 Bolivian Rams, 2 Angelfish, 1 Gourami, 6 Neon Tetra, 4 Gold Barbs, 4 Danios, 1 American Flag Fish, and 2 Plecos.
Today I discovered that I had three deceased Danios! I’ve also noticed that the rest of the fish seem to be breathing awfully heavily. I am worried! My NO2 ≈ 0.3 (maybe a tad higher), my NO3 ≈ 2.5 ppm, my NH4 = 0, my KH = 5, my pH = 7.0 and my O2 ≈ 12. Upon closer examination, I noticed the gills on the Danios were red. I'm not sure if the others have reddened gills, they won't sit still long enough for me to notice.
I have Fluval 304 canister filter and I'm using Carbo-Plus to add CO2. I'm also using a powerhead to inject oxygen.
