Re: Need some help after fishes died



sorry to hear about your fish... happens every-so-often, tho.

basically what happened, is that your fish were poisoned, I think,
because the small aquarium was overstocked before the bacteria that
transfers their wastes was fully established.  You can read more about
that here

If you decide to get more fish, empty out ALL the water from your
aquarium, add more treated water and let it filter for a few days,
then go and buy some more resiliant fish, angelfish are not suitable
to start a new tank 'cycling' (see article above).  I have used danios
or mollies when cycling and have had great luck with them.

Also, maybe try and find a new fish store with a more knowledgable
staff that can help you out with things...

Hope that helps a little,

Connor
