Hi all,
I have had an awful morning. I have been treating for columnaris which i think was introduced by a new fish i bought or a plant. seemed to be resolved until I did a large water change, thinking this would be a good thing as the fish and water looked clear. Big mistake. the water became cloudy and this morning more than half my fish are dead. I removed the ones still alive and put them in another container with treated tap water, maracyn plus and non idiozized salt. I bet they will all be dead when I get home from work
What the heck do i do now? this bacterial infection was very virulent. And unfortunately i think by doing water changes while I was treating i let it get a grip ad it wouldn't let go. The tank is empty, should I scrap it? I'm sure everything, gravel, driftwood plants filter is full of bacteria.
I'm going to get a small tank at lunch hour and place any remaining fish that are still alive in there and hope they can survive in an uncycled tank with antibitics and water conditioner until I figure out what to do with my 25 gallon.
HELP!!! Any suggestions?
