okay here goes, i left for july 4th hoping the tank would be okay, i even put in the 4 day feeder pyramids to sustain the fish while i was away.
well i was wrong, unfortunately i came back to a disaster zone. about 9 fish had perished and 20 or so snails (which im sort of glad happened since i had way too many)...but i have none now.
only the cardinal tetras, otos, frogs, and corys survived. guppies and mollies died and are still dying...
my plants had some unusual deaths also, anubias nana looks horrible, riccia died, m. umbrosum leaves are rotting away. survivors are cabomba, red tiger lotus, ludwigia repens, and java moss.
what the heck happened in 3 days?????? i checked my levels , everything seems fine. has anyone had this problem before? this is the first time i have left the tank unattended...but 3 days can do this????? i am so lost, i dont know what to do but try to save what is left. but i have to leave again this weekend for world superbike races, is there anything i can do to prevent another massive extinction?
i wonder if it is the Algaefix i have been putting in recently...
sincerely,
