Death and treatment

Ich treatment continues. Today is the 2nd dose out of 3, so we're about 1/2 done. Everyone looks pretty good at the moment, actually. Well, all except the other Walmart fish. He was maybe a green grass or something and he's gone now.

I also separated the male and female feeders into two 1-gal tanks. I need to go back and move a couple males back out of the female tank. Tricky little things puffed up and lied to me to get in with the girls.

Oh boy

There's mass death going on in my tanks. The 1/2 black and yellow guy died. My citrus orange died. The females are looking rough. The fry seem to be fewer and the feeders are dropping like flies. I'm treating for ich and other parasites, so we'll see how it goes. Poor guys. I'm just hoping that Portia hangs on!

Addition and sickness

I added one guppy to the community tank. He's a little top-sword tail feeder from the batch Ty and I bought this week. He's not all that special, but I thought he was pretty and his tail is cool. It kind of looks like a can-opener.

Also, I'm not sure if my little yellow-tail girl has ick, but she's looking a little rough. My black and white girl that got scratched by the airstone is looking fuzzy, too. I may be losing two more. :(

Cleaning

Just so I can keep track, I cleaned the tanks today. An almost 50% water change/vaccuum in the 10 gal. Complete wash and restock in both 1 gallons. Everyone should be happy now!

Also, I lost one fry. I had 12 (not 13 or 10) but I'm now down to 11. The switching tanks was a little hard on them I guess.

One down

I should have posted this the other day, but one of my black and white females died. It was a pretty certain thing. She'd gotten caught in the filter tube and had worn herself out against the air stone. Still, it was sad. She was pregnant and due pretty soon.

In other news, I cleaned all the tanks today! Hooray!
