Did i ever mention how goldfish fail at coordination and depth perception?
Well...they do.
On a side note, I'm ****ing angry that my 2.5 gal crashed today with a 5ppm spike in nitrite...
It was my fault by not checking the water more frequently han weekly, and i shoulda seen that clouding of the water a a sign that somethings up.
But the damage has been done. the night before there were tons of thriving blackworms in this tank, but todayall of them have melted. thats right, MELTED. they all turned towhit mush in between the gravel
I thought i lost all of them, but as i set up the filter for this tank, ive found little baby blackworms (which are red) crawling through the new filter sponge media. so some actually have survived. I've done a 98% water change and rinsed the gravel free of dead worms with some old tank water.
I'm pretty much starting over here.
I'm gonna add some christmas moss to this tank, a heater, and once it finishes cycling again, ill add some cherry shrimp from my 40 gallon. The cycling im hopin will be aided from my big gold apple snail and some other unidentified snails that all survived the crash. Is that a good enough sourc of ammonia, in addition to shrimp pellets and algae wafers that i use to feed these things?
Its really lame how i lost so many of my blackworms *ALL*
