Thanks for the enthusiasm about my tank, but right now I have algae on my glass that needs to harden before I can remove it... it looks really bad IMO, so no pics

Whats this flashing you speak of?

 

[taylorodw]

Here's an answer to that question I posted earlier:

flashing is when a fish scrapes its body against glass, decor, or substrate because something is attacking its slime coat, scales, or gills.

I am updating again because for the past 4 days, 2 of my striped Tiger Barbs have been staying near the surface. This was after about a week or more of not being able to eat (immediately spitting out food), and they were emaciated with sunken bellies. They passed today.

Aww that sucks . One of my CPDs has been having trouble lately with staying upright :|. Sorry for your loss.

Thanks for the repost... somehow i missed that.

Bummer on the tiger barbs.

I'll have a 55 gal barb tank.. I'll prolly have about a dozen tigerbarbs. Going to setup tank and wait for petsmart to have their $1 sale on them again. Also going to have a nice school of neon tetras. BUT first.. I have to get the darn thing up and going lol.

 

[adeebm]

Dude that sucks I'm sure you did everything possible for them. How are the rest of your barbs doing?

[Jason7894561230]

Yeah that is no good, but a good thing is that they had a good home!
