All my fish dyed in two days!
All my fish were doing fine then the water started to get cloudy. Next day there all died. I think it wa because there was a diver and chest in the water that had staples. I went to look at all the stuff in the water and the staples were rusted.

Re: All my fish dyed in two days!
Oh nooooo. I am so sorry, Piranha guy. That's awful. It could well be the metal in the staples, yes. Was it sold to you as aquarium-safe? If so, you could complain to the fish store so it doesn' happen to more people.
I am really sorry about this, Piranha guy. Was there many fish?

Re: All my fish dyed in two days!
I certainly feel your pain. I came home to find three of my four fish died in one day. It was horrible. All you can do is hunt for the source, remove it, and start over. I treated my tank for a week for Ick and got my sole surviving fish back into good health before adding new females.

Re: All my fish dyed in two days!
he he he. Youth! I guess that's true. It's not every day you get to pick new fish.

Re: All my fish dyed in two days!
Oh yes definitely!!!
Tommoro i'm getting that chance, not so much of it though.
Sadly I'm return some of my fish (those that i'll be able to part with) for a betta.
This would never have come about if a friend of mine's tank hadn't broken and given me the fish. Well you can imagine how excited i felt at getting free (more) fish!! Too late i saw they were biggish fish (dinos some barbs, tetras) and my fish started to look stressed out. So i put them all in the 8gal and decided that if i'm going to return them to the lfs, i might as well take some of my own so that i know i have some free space , which i'm bgining to learn is very valuable!!

Re: All my fish dyed in two days!
I am so sorry about your fish!
You had guppies, right? Did you like the idea of all those babies? You could try your hand at guppies again , or you could try other livebearers. Do a little research and let us know your ideas.

Re: All my fish dyed in two days!
sounds like an algae bloom... how long was your tank set up, and was it cycled properly?
As for a puffer, they get kinda big, and need brackish water which many other fish can't tolerate...
