My Poor Fishes

[Spishkey]

plecos are terribly messy things, i have three common plecs with a sand substrate and i have to clean the sand EVERY night, i takes about half an hour a day to do. but i love my plecs so much i could never swap them!

i have lost quite a few number of fish this week and i dont know why. i had my water tested all was wrong was nitrate was high so was given some stuff to put in tank but there still dying

would this be because of the fish were exposed to nitrate ??

i have lost all but one my neons (black & blue), cherry barbs and a few danios

all that left is 1 blue neon, 4 black widows, and 2 huge plecs

it all started when dad gave me some of his plants out his tank but i cant see if it them or not ?

the fish showed no signs of diease one was swiming around ate then died


tank looks so empty

Maybe it might be that you have to many fish and you give them little food or it could be the plant...
