I have a 75g heavily planted tank .it has white clouds,cherry barbs,blue eyed rainbow fish ,peacock gudgeons ,otos,and ember tetras in it.it has been set-up 4 months.i run 2 canister filters on it and a hob filter.the temp is 76 degrees. This is my water parameters according to my api test kit.nitrite 0,ammonia 0,nitrate 0,ph 7.2, kh 35.8 ,gh 214,( hard to test gh and kh) and tds 318.i do have hard water. so,i introduced 6 juvenile cacatuoides triple red about an inch long each to my tank a month ago.
They were all eating and doing fine but...slowly a couple weeks ago they started to die off.now i only have 2 left.they are out swimming around and eating very well.im just wondering what might of happened? Did my water parameters slowly kill them? No other fish lose in the tank but the apistos.did they kill each other untill only 2 were left? These are the first apistogrammas ive ever kept.any help would be great.i really want to keep these last 2 alive.
