You have a healthy system in your tank. Yesterday, I was talking to my big brother (I am in my #$*& and he is nearly 70) and I am describing hw happy everyone is in my community tank.
20G High
2 salt'n'pepper corys
1 golden chinese algae
2 dwarf gourami
6 Black Phantom Tetras
4 Otocinclus
All water parameters in healthy range. Temp consistent at 78. Bubbler & QuietFlow 30 for filtration.
My otocinclus all seemed to be checking out the plants, hanging out on the driftwood cave, and eating the biofilm off of roots, leaves and walls.
This morning I look in to find one of my otocinclus belly up :-(
The only variance is that I added 2 water lily bulbs into the tank.
Any ideas on what can cause a sudden death like this?
