so, 55 gal fw tank, planted, 3 feeder goldfish, 6 otos, 2 rosy barbs.
just did a pwc, seemed to go fine. been up and running for a total of about 3 weeks now.
1 gold appears to have swim bladder disease, one appears to have ich and the other is losing his tail. they were doing fine up until.. i don't know. two days ago maybe?
i had a blue channel cat that died right away and i think i'm MISSING?!?!?! one of otocinclos. i really can't find him. i've looked.
my plants were rotting, so i upped the potasium. i just added more salt to help with the ich. i'm not feeding them for a week to help with the swim bladder. geez. i'm feeling super overwhelmed here, like every time i look there is something else wrong with my tank.
any ideas? advice? do i need to remove the one goldfish with ich to keep the other guys from getting it?
super frustrated over here.... tia!!!
