Checked again, just to make sure. All fish look fine. Swimming around, merry as can be.
I'm just confused now, because I don't want whatever this is to happen again, but I don't know what it is or how to prevent it!
Do you think I should cut back on stock? It doesn't seem overstocked to be, but I could be wrong.
It is 10 gallons, filtered with 2 sponge filters and an AC20. One sponge is rated for 20 gal, the other for 10 or 15. I plan on adding lava rock to increase my biofilter.
It gets WCs weekly, normally, but up to daily lately.
Very lightly planted, only a few stems of rotala and a clump of flame moss.
Stock is 5 peacock gudgeons, from around 1.5 inches to 2 inches. Before the crash, there was also 1 endler fry that was .75 inch, and around 4-5 newborn fry. There are also some trumpet snails.
Should I down the stock? Maybe loose a gudgeon or 2?
