potamotrygon fan
As alot of you know i have been raising a baby freshwater stingray
(potamotrygon reticulata) and until yesterday it was all going great. In the
tank I had all of my fry from my texas/jd pair i sold, my breeding group of
cories, some loaches I got from rachel, a baby peackock bass and, an
arowana. So lots of valuble and expensive fish (at least for me because
everything I buy comes out of my alouance).
Every saturday I clean the 55 and the 120 and on sundays I clean the 10,
20, and 29. So I started out doing a 75% water change and everyone was
doing great. Once i started adding water a few of the fish started
swimming weirdly (including the ray) and I thought they where just a
little freaked out from all the moving water.
Half an hour later I come upstairs to see how things are going with the tank. Everything was dead.
I still don't know how or why it happened. I used acid buffer and prime
like I normally do. I checked the ph -6.5- I checked the temp -78f. It was
all normal. What should I do with the ornaments, sand, filter media, and
filter? Should I throw it away?
