got 2 girls on saturday from local aquatic centre..one of them has been very quiet...and she is on bottom of tank this morning...got like white chalk deposits round her gills...very strange..going to ring shop up dinnertime and moan...what was it in case other girl gets it?
 
:no: no her body is slightly curved sitting on bottom of tank..dead as a dodo and on one side of her face near her gills looks just like white chalk deposit. just had another look and it is on other side of her as well half way down body? going to have to go to shop in dinner break..other fish is very quiet think she is missing her..the fish in the tank she came from.. I declined first one he got out as it looked funny perhaps I should have looked at this one better.

ps. I love peeps on this forum someone always answers...its like having an encyclopedia in your front room. thanks
 
hah, Liz, we both got two new girls on Saturday. One of mine is having trouble too. :( Hope yours gets better!
 
one of mine died..she had chalky deposits on her then when I looked an hour later she was perfectly still but :crazy: all her colour had faded and she was white...I fished her out of tank and took her back to pet shop....they said you got a dead fish there..they didnt know what was wrong with her..but gave me a replacement..trouble is they had hardly any left so I picked a small cream girl...when I put her in with the other realised she was half the size so she is in a breeding trap with the other one in the tank...chap in shop said he couldnt tell which were females and which were males!
 
:crazy: Hmmm perhaps the people in the shop should go out and learn about them then! I think it is pointless people like that working with fish!

Sorry for your loss RIP!

Do you have a pic of your new girls?
 
not yet..to be honest they dont look too clever....woman next door bought a load of neons from there last week and has lost all of them :crazy:
