So my BAD kitty LOVES to eat any flowers I have. Well b/c I had a bad day yesterday my sweetie brought me home flowers. So I put them on a shelf above my dwarf tank and wouldnt u know they ended up getting knocked over

I have NO idea how much of this water went into the dwarf tank (it had that stuff in it to make flowers last longer)
I did a 50% water change already. What else should I do???

was there anything in the water besides flowers? that sugar stuff?
besides water change and running filter media probably not much else you can do

i would just do almost constant water changes, not really anything else you can do. Good luck.

yeah that stuff in the packet that comes with most flowers
I THINK most of the water ended up on the floor
And I am running 2 filters in there right now

just keep doing water changes but slowly. since you did a big one at first just do small ones but frequently. the 2 filters should help a tad but there not gonna take out much of the chemicals in the water.
i would buy some activated carbon, take an old sock, put like a hand full or so of carbon in the sock, tie it up, and put it in the tank. there is most likely not enough carbon in your two filters to help much.

Watch the wee ones for rapid breathing. Ok ,so they do breathe fast anyway, but faster than usual?

Everybody in the fishy family is fine!!!!

Now if I could only get so lucky w/my kiddos.....last night right about the time we were all setteling down Lilly my 6y.o. starts crying in pain. She said it was her ear so I gave her pain reliever (that didnt help) and all she did was cry, cried herself to sleep twice and there was nothing I could do to ease her pain, I felt helpless.

So this morning i got her up and took her to work with me and then to the Dr, she has a nasty ear infection and a fever

I got sent home from work early though!!!!
