Dead fishAll my fish died today   I had given a treatment for whitespot a few days ago as the blackmoor, Bob, had whitespot. I measured it correctly for the amount of water the tank holds etc. Did a water change today, only removed a quarter of the water, added new water and tap safe. Took Bernie to the vets this afternoon and when i got home all the fish were belly up and dead. I feel terrible, coz it must be something I did or didnt do but I dont know where I went wrong. R.I.P., Bob, Ginge, Dave, Fabio and Bingo, I am so sorry xxx

Aaww, Elaine, so sorry to hear this. My OH has kept fish for years and can't really think of anything you've done wrong. The only thing he could think of is to ask you if you had put lukewarm water in or straight out of the tap. If it was out of the tap, it might have been the shock of the cold water that killed them, but he really is just guessing here, 'cause he says you did everything else correctly. ((hugs))x |

Is there such a thing as new tank syndrome? I did add the water straight from the tap. I have since boiled everything and refilled the tank. Have added tapsafe and switched everything back on. The water does look pretty cloudy. May buy some testing kits from work and check the water quality before getting any new fish. |

That's such a pity. I don't know a huge amount about fish, but from my limited experience I do know that they can be very fickle creatures and any tiny imbalance can cause a problem. I'm sorry you've lost your watery friends |
