Help A Friends Kid Put Crackers In My Tank

[FishyJ]

A friend's kid put a cheese it flavored cracker in my 10 gallon tank. I've got guppies and otocinclus'. I did about a 40% water change. Any other advise on what to do, or even if it's as bad as I'm making it out to be?

Is it just one cracker? If so, it's not a huge worry, and I think the water change is a good start. You'll need to gravel vac really well to make sure you get it all out.

Yes it's just one cracker. I did use a gravel vac to get it out. I'm pretty sure I got it all, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to do it again.

I'll keep an eye on it. Hopefully I got it all.

Sounds like you're pretty okay then. Just keep an eye on things and do another water change if fish seem to be having any issues.

 

[WTFish?]

Was it a GOLDFISH cracker?? Lol, it should be ok I would think.

My kids once put shampoo in a 30 gallon tall hex I had a breeding pair of Jewell's in- nobody died but the bubbles we're spectacular
