shadoh Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Well, here you go... Not much to see. Not coloured up yet. Took a good 2 - 3 days last time before they settled in, showed a bit of colour and explored the whole tank. Enjoy. This is the male. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=us_qLpNRXeM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadoh Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Well, no point putting pressure on now and there will be no more videos of green spaghetti. I just went to feed the pair and the male had died sometime last night. Female looks fine. I will keep an eye on her throughout the day :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bettarazzi Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 What the hell happened? Could there have been paint residue in the tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadoh Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 I was pretty careful to clean the tank several times to make sure, but you never know... I would have thought the female would have died too if that was the case. Bad blood worms? Then again, why is the female still swimming around? Just thinking out loud here... Had temperatures in the mid 30's last couple of days. And I know temps in the fishroom are around the 40 deg mark. Could it be the heat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletch Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Mine are the same mate. My wild tank is over 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbites Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Let your tanks evaporate - cools the water - take off the glass covers - put mesh covers over the wilds to stop jumpers though..... need more topups and have to watch the water changes but helps keep the temps a couple degrees cooler..... how's the girl doing now? fingers crossed she's ok....

shadoh Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Well, that's my wild adventure over just checked on the female and she had died. She was fine a few hours ago. I don't know what went wrong. I was meticulous about making sure the tank was cleaned out properly. The only thing I can think of is that there must have been some residue. What else could it be? I am gutted. Going to continue with the fishroom overhaul and reassess this at a later time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Nut Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 That is a horrible shame. So sorry you lost your pair, but don't beat yourself up too badly. I purchased two pairs of Tussyae from someone and lost both seemingly healthy females for no reason I could discern. It happens sometimes, and it is such a kick in the guts. Especially since they were such beautiful fish :bighug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Aww, so sorry Jarrod! Such a shame. Happens to us all at times - I remember when I lost all my rutilans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
