Dear Fish hobbyists,
I just got an tropical aquarium for a month now, and i must say it is really peacefull.
its fun on spending time on your aquarium , taking care of the fishes.
But i think my fish got a sickness or something like this, maybe on of you can help me out what exactly is going on with my fish.
I started to put fish in my aquarium about 1 week ago, the aqarium was already been setup for 3 weeks and the quality and temperature was superb of the water.
Now because i already had this water for 3 weeks running i just refreshed the water for 20% yesterday.
The fish store also adviced to take an conditionneur after the water refresh so the water quality will still be good. ( on the manual it says 10 ml per 30 liter, i
got an 60 litre aquarium but i only threw in 10 ml).
also cleaned my filter in the old aquarium water wich i take out so i still have the good bacteria after the water refresh.
now today i noticed one of my fishes are gone ( an cardinal tetra ) and my fishes got black spots over their skin, it is not deep dark but it is strange.
They do act normal and the ph looks good after a measurement,
i got in my aquarium:
Betta Splendens
5 Cardinal Tetra ( 1 died, didn't find anything in or around the aquarium )
3 Corydoras Panda
2 Ghost Shrimp
Here is a photo of the tetra with black spot, sorry that the photo is not good quality. ( 300 kb max
)
can maybe someone say what the black spot is?
thanks for advance!
