Hi I put this same question in the wrong section before. i put it in the newbie section not knowing the rules oops!.
i have had my tank running for about about 2 months now and lost a black widdow about 4 weeks after setting up. i thought this may be down to the nitraite levels of the newly set up tank, all though i thought it was a hardy fish.
I cleaned my tank the other night and found 1 dead neon. i checked the tank by counting the other fish and one neon was missing. i have looked in the filter searched every where even in the gravel. i have not found it any where. i dont think any of my fish are big enough to eat it ?
i havent got any testing kits, anyone recomend which ones i need. i normaly take samples to the lfs they seem to have been really honest so far. They asked me to take a sample before i bought any fish to make sure it was right. they told me it was.
could i have siphoned it by accident they normaly keep out the way and i tend to herd them to the side im not working on. I do about a 20 - 25% water change every week.
