Have have had my tank setup for just over a month and it finally finished cycling about four or five days ago and all my levels are at 0. After about a week of it being setup I put 2 blue damsels in it to start the cycle and then a blue angel fish about a few days after that. about two weeks later one of the blue damsles and the angel fish fins looked turn almost but to even, more like they had worn away and they couldn't swim. after a few more days I got a striped damsel and just this morning he is showing sings that he is not going to make it. his eyes looked blugy and he is brething heevy. and while he is usually up at the top of the tank he is now almost on the ground. Does anyone have any idea what keeps happening to my fish? my LFS said the frist wave of death was an ammonia spike, OK that I can buy but now what is the cuase? sorry for the long post and thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
