:i've been stupid and now im in desparate need of help...
i've asked so may people and every one is giving me different advice!!!!
ok folks i've messed up big time
changed my set up and external filters were off for 24 hrs.... cycled my other tank of malawis with tetra safe start and had no problems so sent hubby out to get some fish and tetra safe start...
had added water to tank a day ago, heaters on, chlrne remover in...etc filter on for 1 day..
husband made 2 errors...
bought nutrafin cycle instead and ..it gets worse.....and he bought 3 large clown loaches (10cm each)
THE MOST SENSITIVE FISH HE COULD HAVE FOUND!!!!
called the shop wouldnt take them back they werent out of the bag yet!!!
i didnt know whether to add the cycle or not so after many frantic phone calls i added the right dose 1/2 bottle tank is 350litres and acclimatised them.
its been 3 days i've asked everyone and they said to keep eye on water and wait ...well i dont wanna lose any fish
took my water for testing at a diff fish store and they said it was fine it is day3 now....so its not really gonna be high... after dong copius amounts of reading the net i have added about 35% of filter media from another tank i have to the filter ...
i didnt do this in the first place as the front tank is peacocks and haps and the water is completely different
please please please fis
