THE DEAD FISH THREAD!!!!!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Foster and Smith Brand Bio/Power filter aka piece of crap just stopped working on a 40 breeder w my wild caught pair of atabapo 1 pikes and I found them DEAD. I was so pissed. Last night another one crapped out on a tank w/ Geophagus brokopondo holding eggs. They will be getting another earful from me and I will be hesitant to try new products in my fishroom.

i should of taken a pic, but i was away for the weekend and i fed them heavily before i left and did a water change, but i came back on sunday to find that my smallest common pleco had died, he was about 5 inches and when i removed his body it turns out all that was left was his shell, the whole bottom and inside of him were eaten out. my mom said it was my clown loaches, harsh.. he seemed to be doing fine, was battling a fungus infection for awhile but it cleared up and i thought he was ok :\
 
what is that?
It's a purple spot gudgeon, sometimes called purple spot goby. This particular one is (was) about 6 inches and died this morning. I THINK it's from the exodons that were temporarily housed with him. They eat scales off of fish. If anyone else has any idea what the cause of death could be (by looking at the flesh on the side of him) please go visit my thread called "Dead Gudgeon..disease or wound?"
