My tank has been established and stable for a few years, including 6 red line torpedo barbs (see profile photo). On Saturday night I had a bit of a loud music session. Real loud actually, for about 3 hours- bit of a drunken party. One speaker is above and back from the tank.
Got up the next day to find 5 red lines belly up.
5 clown loaches, 5 leopard danios, 1 pearl gourami, 6 khulis, 1 BGKF, 4 yoyo loaches, and 3 kribs, were all shaken but not stirred.
Now there is a huge vacuum in the middle of my aquarium. They were a good size too, 4 or 5" maybe. Damn it.
So be careful with your tank placement, be careful with loud music, and be careful with RLTBs. The last fish I lost before this was a RLTB when I moved up a tank size. These guys really are sensitive.
