HI all.
We have just set up a new tank and it was setup for about a week.
We went to the local shop to choose some fish and we decided to get 2 blue rams to start with.
We had the water tested at the shop and it was all spot on so we thought brilliant let's get then rams.
We did everything we was told to do. So the bag with the fish sat in the tank for 20 mins. Then we added some of out tank water to the bag left it another 20 mins. All seems good at this point.
Let the fish free into the tank. They started to swim around. Then started sucking at the top of the water. Then within about 40 minutes they went nuts jumping around banging into the glass and then died.
Could anyone let us know what we have done wrong. We don't want to buy anymore just in case the same thing happens again.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Our tank is a 25l tank with some rocks plants and stones at the bottom. Everything was cleaned with fresh water before it when in.
Kind regards
Jonathan
