Re: [APD] More fish die off

Sounds like your water company may have changed from chlorine to
chloramines.  What are you using to neutralize them?  I heard of a couple of
nationally know betta breeders have that happen to them and they lost 500
fish with the first water change.  Cardinals are some of the most sensitive
fish you can keep.  It would make sense that they would be the first to go
if you were experiencing a problem.

Ok... I have to find out what is making my fish are dieing off...

DYI Co2 injected through powerhead... Moderately planted.

Parameters:
Ammonia 0
Nitrite      0
Ph          7.8
GH         5
KH         5
Co2        5
Test kits
Aquarium Pharmaceuticals for Ammonia, Nitrite, GH. PH
Red Sea for CO2 and KH

I changed 5 gallons of water yesterday out of a 45 gallon tank. Result?
Cardinals all die... one pair of rainbow fish still alive and trying to
spawn... and one Dwarf gourami building a bubble nest by himself... poor
fella.

What is happening?
