Yes, FL78 it is a word lol but this is really concerning especially when your'e trying so hard to protect your babies-when you get these type you will know what i mean they are just beautiful and so full of personallity[sp]and you can't help becoming attached to them they are great little fish -oh, how i wish i knew more but my eyes are sore from reading but picking a lot as i go Sorry, should have mentioned 50% water change daily 3-filters 20aqua and 1-small box corner and i gravel vac daily as well, and i use filter floss for media it's cheaper and you can change as i have 3-in each filter.and keeps it clean as it can. and i use prime as ammonia is >0.25 before and after water change nitrite-o and nitrate-20 p.h.-7.5so i think i'm on the right track lol bella
