strange thing
This evening, I planted a few new pots of plants in my tank.
They had been sitting there in their pots for a week or so, and I
finally got around to planting them. I also at this time put a ceramic
pot in the tank for my loaches to use as a cave.
Several hours later, all the fish were hovering near the surface
of the water, breathing hard. All the water tests came out fine. So I
did about a 50% water change, removed the pot, and put a bunch
of fresh carbon in the filter. During this time I lost a Ram. :(
All I can think of, is that I squeezed some of the water from the
wool the potted plants came in before removing the plants form the
wool. Could there have been something in the pots to cause this?
Or is it more likely that it was some sort of problem with the pot?
No other casualties yet, so I'm hopeful that the worst is past.
