After a bout of clout which claimed 9 of our Mbuna settled down more than 6 weeks ago, the tank has been thriving, all fish doing well, tank in great shape. Plus we've had fry which are also doing well in growing tank.
About 4 weeks ago an Albino started spending time close to the top of the tank, but not gasping occasionally blowing a water bubble and then chasing it. It seemed to be the spot he was keeping. Would be active sometimes in the tank, and feeding like all others. Returning to it's spot.
8 days ago, an Albino was found dead in the morning. No signs what so ever of illness. It didn't seem to be the one close the to surface as it was still there blowing the occasional bubble.
Yesterday we've lost another Albino! 6 out of 8 remain. Again no signs. What could be the problem??
Readings are Ammonia 0, Nitrite 0, Nitrate 20 yesterday before doing our weekly 50% water change.
All help much appreciated.
