Aquarium Advice FINatic
Well, as a follow up from my post regarding my guppy that was losing color. I bought a QT setup with the following components:
- 5.5 gal tank
- 25 watt marineland heater
- penguin mini filter
I added about 2.5gals of already established water from my 10gal and 2gal of new declor'd tap water. I waited 24hrs for the filter to run and then I added the sick guppy(acclimitised first). I added aquarium salts last night and bought some meds on the way home today. When I got home the guppy was stuck to the intake of the filter. Now he is lying sideways on the bottom of the tank. Does the penquin mini have too much intake power for fish? I have no idea what happened but i'm very sad. Lost 2 fish in 24hrs. ANy input would be appreciated.
