If Its Not One Thing, Its Another:(

Hi guys (moan time)
Its been a pretty crap week really
Firstly, my yearling corn snake died completely out of the blue! No warnings, no symptons, nothing
Then 2 cory's died, again no problems with the tank - its actually better for them at present cus the temp is lower as there's no betta in with them! Had to put one out his misery which is never nice
Midas, Netty's feathertail, is acting really gloomy. Changing his trickle filter to a sponge one to see if that helps.
A lady we sold a male too, lives in the South Shields area where the ph levels were raised by the water board, causing her to lose nearly all her fish, including the betta
Two of my females Midnight (pk) and Crumble the "ugly" crown tail are fighting. Looks like both will need to be seperated. Both gill flaring, the works
And to cap it all off, one of the 4 babies (a light coloured female) from Taro, decided to squeeze its way into the filter wool of its filter and got stuck and died

Oh joy

Sounds like one crappy week aye When i bought my first corn snake a few years back it died a day after i brought it home, maybe common in corns or something

Hope all turns out well mate

Cheers guys
Just finished giving the cory tank a good vac, and sorted the plants out in there. Changed the filter in the babies tank too. Got a sponge filter in there now. Luckily i have mature sponge filters running in other tanks, so i simply cut the sponge in half and replace with a new half, leaving the mature half to add to the new filter.
Got to go and sort out Midas' filter now

I hate it when you take perfect care of something and it dies for no apparent reason. So sorry about your loss's.
