Water quality is good. Ph is 7.2, ammonia 0, nitrates 0, nitrites 0. That was the first thing i thought of. Some of the tiger barbs have torn fins also. Swords seem to be dieing about one a week for the past three weeks. All have been missing tails and fins.

What is killing my sword tails? Tigerbarbs or danios?

Sorry for the blurry pics.

When do you think it will drop?

Thanks for the replies. I may have to rethink this whole Salt Water thing. May have to stick with fresh water.

Contemplating setting up my 29 gallon tank. Do I really need to use R0 / DI water? My Lfs gives the ro water away its just that it seems to be a long drive for 25 plus gallons (25 miles one way).

By the way they have been in this tank together for almost a year.

Tank is at 72°

I know about the stocking issues.(daughters tank, daughter put in what she wants) Hard to explain to her they don't belong together. Ph7.2 Ammonia. 0 Nitrite 0 Nitrate 5 I do the tank maintenance on the fish tanks its the only reason I noticed any thing was wrong.

I was wondering if a goldfish would eat a zebra danio? My daughters tank had bunch of danios and a comet goldfish. I say had because there are two danios missing and one that is missing its entire tail.

Anyone bought Live Rock from Petco? They seem to have the best price around here. The best good,bad, and ugly please.

Hi, Although I am new to this sight, I have been lurking for awhile now. I am just getting back into this hobby (obsession) after a break for few years. Starting slow with two 10 gallon freshwater tanks and a 30 gallon saltwater (which will be set up after the Holidays). No big tanks for now.
