Vallisneria Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 I'm so sorry I couldn't make it. I'm glad everything went smoothly. Hows the fishies settling in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jods2518 Posted April 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Hey Val....I jsut hope you start to feel better soon, We managed jsut fine thanks! I am having an issue with the Syno's settling in, they are all breathing hard and hanging out on the top of the tank a bit. I tested for Amonia and Nitrite and nada....but I did a 25% water change today anyways and got all the rock in so they have some hiding spots.....I'll do another water change tomorrow....I really don't know whats going on as the rest of the fish are doing great! Thanks again, Jods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvision Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Yeah, I had a B-day party I had to be at - otherwise I would have had much more beer! :beer: I'll definitely take you up on that offer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jods2518 Posted April 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Awsome Jason....What about you Pat...we can pick an afternoon one weekend....!!! I lost 3 out of the 6 syno's so far...it sux, the others aren't looking too happy either, I don't get it, but I'm doing big water changes daily to eleviate the problem, but the test strips aren't showing signs of ammonia or nitrite so Ihave no idea??? Oh the Joy's of moving the big tank....:P....I jsut hate knowing that 3 of my most exspensive fish have died....and everyone else is looking good!!? The pleco's are hanging out at the top behind the filter intakes too.....I even made sure there was extra surface movement for maximum oxegenination...anyone have a clue as to what else I can do to make sure the others don't kick it too??

jvision Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 How's the sand? I commented to Henry that it's the cleanest looking sand I've ever seen come out of a tank, but since it's your cats that are having the issues, there might be some anoxic gasses in the sand - do you stir it up when doing the WC? If not, I'd start. Maybe add a bubble-wand layed horizontally at the bottome of the tank.... I'm really just grasping at straws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corrosionjerry Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Could it be that they were stressed by the move... Change in water quality perhaps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jodes Sounds like a good idea. I'm sure Janice would love to come too. A housewarming perhaps? Sorry to hear you lost a few in the move. I'm sure that if you keep up the WC's for a bit, the tank's biofilter will reassert itself and everything will return to normal. Edited April 19, 2007 by BooUrns!

Jods2518 Posted April 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 For sure Janice better come, she's an awesome girl!! I'll let you guys know more about a party as I get settled, most likely in the next few weeks! things seem to be getting back to normal in the tank, the remaining syno's (I can only see 2 and the 3rd remaining is MIA) are doing better, haven't seen them out eating yet, but they seem to have relaxed anywyas! Talk to ya all soon! Jides Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
