What sized tank is it? How long has the tank been set up and running? How long have the fish been in there? Most importantly, what are your ammonia, nitrIte, nitrAte, and Ph readings? ^_^ [hr width='40%'] It only hurts when I breathe"  |

Just take in a small sample to them. And welcome to the site  Jim |

If you do take water to your LFS, be sure to ask for the actual numbers on the test... whatever you do dont accept the following "you're water is fine" "here add this" Get actual numbers and write them down, then come back here with them .^_^ [hr width='40%'] It only hurts when I breathe" |

houston Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003 | Welcome to FP and yes, as the adults die any fry that they might be carrying will also die with them, just as though they are humans...  and make sure they tell you what your ammonia is, nitrite, and nitrate...you don't want to have the just write down the numbers, and not know what they are I've had it happen before heidiAnd now back to the program"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom."
