My Tank Thread
I'm glad things looked to have turned the corner for you!For clarification about my numbering system. I started with two fish. Fish 1 died. I thought fish two was going to die last night. Fish three is the new guy I bought yesterday to replace fish 1.
I went downstairs this morning to find fish 2 swimming happily around the tank! This makes me so happy! I thought he was a goner for sure. It appears the copper is helping him get through whatever he had. I'm assuming it is the same as fish 1 but I think treatment started too late to save fish 1.
I tried some mysis this morning and neither fish were interested. I'm going to suck out the food with a turkey Baster and let them sit in the dark again today.
I will try feeding them again tonight.
I'm super hopeful now! Even if fish 3 has the same problem that 1 and 2 have, getting him in copper right away should let him get through it.
No luck getting them to eat the same flakes they were eating at the store?
Also, I know my fish in QT do not like to eat until the light on the tank has been on for 15+ minutes. Not sure what your feeding/lighting schedule is with these little guys but maybe that will help.
