Hi everybody!
Two days ago my fish all started breathing extremely fast. fish died and I had no idea why. The water parameters weren't bad. At the time there was no nitrite or ammonia. There was maybe 80 nitrate. Ph and alkalinity were fine. I added fish 6 days ago. The current water parameters are:
40 Nitrate
0 Nitrite
0 Ammonia
8 Ph
180 Alkalinity
82 degrees Fahrenheit (I know this is very high, I need to get a better heater.)
they are in a quarantine tank with a media reactor running with carbon at the moment no meds and three bubblers. I have an available supply of prazi-pro and copper power. in the tank is:
Slippery dick wrasse
emperor snapper
black spot tang
neon velvet damsel
gem tang
2 singapore butterflyfish
coral beauty
pencil wrasse
red coris wrasse
lamarck angel
the fish are breathing very rapidly and the gem tang, black spot, and coral beauty are not eating.
Urgent help would be appreciated.
