HI Guys,
Recently I have been purchasing Venezuelan corydoras from my lfs however they kept dying when I introduced them into my established tank. So instead I put them into my QT, I had 7 to begin with and am now only left with 2. These ones have been surviving for a while now.
Obviously coz the fish keep dying the lfs owe me fish. So I went in there and they replaced 2 black Cory's. After the second day one of the black ones was dead so I went to the lfs and bought 3 bronze Cory's, and 1 peppered, the next day one bronze was dead and the other was missing... I looked EVERYWHERE.
So then again I went back to the lfs and they gave me
3 black Venezuelan Cory's
2 bronze
2 albino
2 sterbais
That was 2 days ago. Was fine yesterday and the day before. Woke up this morning and an albino and a bronze cory are dead...
Like WHAT IS GOING ON!!!
They are in an established 15 gallon QT
Tested with an API master kit
PH- 8
Ammonia- 0
Nitrite- 0
Nitrate- 30/40
I keep up with water changes. The only thing I can think is that it has been extremely hot in the UK recently. Topping 35- so maybe the temperature change is killing them. I maintain the temperature so I really don't know....
Someone please advise...
I am at a total loss. The smallest sterbaI Cory's are fine yet the bigger more established bronze and albino ones aren't
