Ok i had 6 zebra danios, 4 of which i cycled my tank with.
Yesterday one of them died, (she has been looking pretty bad for a quite a while, sitting on the substrate, swimming backwards, she was still eating and even chasing the other danios but seemed to be getting picked on a fair bit. She was very small in comparison to the other and i did cycle the tank with her) so anyway i found her tangled in one of my plants and took her out.
Now what is really starting to worry me is that another one, ( i added two more to the original 6) is starting to look very pale, the other four have a yellow shade to their bodies, they look healthy and chase around each other in really quick movements, whereas this one has a more white/cream colour. It is quite large in comparison to the others, but it goes off and does its own thing which is really starting to stress me. it gets chased aswell. I am currently feeding them goldfish flake as that is all i have, should I start feeding them specific tropical flake? and are granules better then flake?
the danios are stocked with
5 - yoyo loach
and a bristlenose
who all look healthy, i feed the b/n and yoyos, algae wafers and cucumber
any suggestions?
