Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Greetings from Kansas! I am new to this forum and am here to tell you, I will probably drive you all crazy with gup questions. Just when I think I am smooth sailing, another problem arises. My latest and most worrisome problems pertains to my very first batch of fry, three weeks old. I would've never guessed I could become so obsessed with the well-being of a bunch of teeny tiny fish! In spite of one go-round with a bout of ich, they have been doing quite well, eating like maniacs SEVERAL times daily, growing steadily. Then this morning when I went to feed them, they all had red gills and were acting lethargic. OH MAN, NOT MY BABIES!!! I just did a water change (50%) yesterday, new filter, a little aquarium salt, so I wouldn't think high ammonia?!! So I increased the filtration level on the filter gizmo and now, a few hours later, they do look better and are eating like their normal piggish selves. Any ideas?
