Hi all
New here but looking for some advice.
I'm going to replant my tank soon, and most likely add some more sand substrate. The problem I have is that I have no other tank to store my fish in. I currently have 4 peppered corys, 4 glowlight tetras, 6 neon tetras and 2 platys. Whilst am working on the tank, can I store them in the bags they come in from the LFS without tieing them so more oxygen gets to them? I also could put some in some plastic containers without the lids on. How long can they stay in these bags and containers without a filter?
Also when I first put the substrate in it turned the water all cloudy, even though I washed it throughly before hand, will the fish be ok in this cloudy water from adding more substrate once I've finished?
cheers for the help.
