I got up this morning and found both of my horses (yeah, both of them) on the sand...neither would eat breakfast. I tried spot feeding, some tough love, etc...I've checked the water parameters twice...
ammonia 0
nitrites 0
nitrates 0
pH 8.2
SG 1.025-6
I was convinced that both were gone, and when I went in to "dispose of them", I reached in to retrieve Apache and he scooted away, same with Navajo. On careful inspection, both are breathing normally, their skin (as far as I can tell) looks fine. Their eyes looks bright, but "confused and worried".
I tried upping the temperature very slowly, and at this point I put in one of the mini jets to see if flow is the problem.
Going over what I did yesterday in that tank. I had to replace yet another filter (the old one was not working at all), but I went with a smaller of the same brand. I did a water change 5 gallons. and I added a new fake plant. I never...NEVER have chemicals around my tanks, so I don't believe that that could be the culprit.
Please...PLEASE...I've been in tears all day long off and on...I feel so useless. Also, I got on the big horsie site and found that this as happened to someone else's kuda 6/25/07...no response...
