hi guys,
I have a low tech 180l planted tank and it has been cycled for 5 weeks. Last Sunday, we went to shop and we bought
5 platy
4 Otto
4 zebra danios
2 bamboo shrimp
Everything got on really well until yesterday. I found a trace of nitrate in water test, so I did a 40% water change. This morning I got a call from wife and she found one of platy is lying dead.
What could be wrong? What shall I do for the rest of fish?
Just remember something else, bought a tunze nanostream to bring more flow to bamboo shrimp, they seems love it and danios love it too. Last night was first night I left it on for whole night ( it was running pretty much whole day as well), could it be too much flow for platy? I didn't see them playing in the high flow as the other ones.
Many thx
Kai
