My tank took a very random and sudden bad turn this morning !

My 2 albino sharks still quite young started pretty much tearing each other apart !

Scales came off and none of them seem to have any barbels any more !

I isolated one and hes in a freezer bag at the side of the tank !

and the other is still in the tank !

I really dont know what to do !

Do any of you guys know of any really cheap decent set ups i could buy to throw one of the troublesom two into ?

Bare in mind i am in the uk and would need it really quick !

I would just like some names i can run into my LFS with and hopefully get one real quick !

My dad has a little plastic tank thing you can use it for rats fish frogs etc etc !

if i use this temporarily how can i keep it warm ?

Thanks alot

Richie
 
I think if they are fighting that badly you going to need another full setup(tank,filter,heater etc) or take one of them back to the lfs.

Thanks so much for replying so quick !

Well i have a 4 foot on the way but its not here until jan the 22 ! maybe before it !

But i really think i will need another !

I need something real quick as i have a RTBS yeah u heard me right lol

I have in the one 3ft tank a RTBS and 2 albino rainbows !

I saved the RTBS from a cousin who was goin to flush it !

My LFS told me to get albinos in groups ! i had them and then got the RTBS of my cousin !

Its the dominant in the tank and the Albinos are usually fine i dont no what happen tho !

there jus goin mad man !

but i think if i buy on of those divider things ppl use for there bettas i could split up the RTBS and one of the Albinos and if i get a smaller tank then put the other albino in it !

Ive had them too long for my LFS to take them back !

Anymore ideas are certainly welcome :D

and as i am only 16 i reli dont have alot of money !

Well i have none just now :(

sorry bout the typing i have just rushed it and have abbreviated alot and used Messenger talk i just hope you understand it lol !
 
Deviding the tank might help for now. It would probably be a good idea if you put the submisive albino on the same side as the RTBS.

And keep your fingers crossed until you get the other tank.

One thing i would suggest is that you buy the filter your going to have in the new tank as soon as pos and run it in your existing tank so that it starts to build a bacteria colonny.

Then when the new tank comes you can set it up straight away.

Next time your at you lfs ask them if they would be willing to take one of them, it would save you a lot of trouble in the long run.

Well i get a filter with the tank its a full deal !

And well im saving up water from the tank from my weekly water changes !

ill Fill up some of the tank wit that and i will also use one of the 2 filters i have in this tank along side the new filter in the new tank thats should really get the bacteria going ?

So you think i should put one of the albinos in with the RTBS ?

Whats one would you say i should put in they are really similary sized and wer both equally evil to each other ?

i also have some tiger barbs so i think ill divide them off with the lone shark !

So one side i have 1 RTBS and an ARS

and the other i have 6 tigers and 1 ARS ?

Thanks

Richie
