I keep my fish in a 30 gallon bucket until everything is ready for the new start. When I uninstalled the tank and removed all the fish, I did not remember removing my Kubotai loach, I forgot about it at that time, I did not remember removing it but I did see it the day I uninstalled it, so I blamed myself since then, today I made a I changed the water and removed detritus from the bucket and after moving a couple of rocks to clean it shot out, it really was a huge relief, I thought I had lost it and it would have been very difficult to get another one, I'm happy to see it again.

Good you havent lost it. I thought i was gonna lose my fish because of the accident, there is perlite and seramis swimming all over the tank and fish nibbling on those ?
I would try to remove everything that floats with a net, at least until you have time to correct your tank.

This weekend I took the opportunity to remove my smallest fish from the 30 gallon bucket, and leave only the largest ones in the bucket.
I put my Corydoras in a 10 gallon temporary tank, also my two smallest angels, my red cap angel has not grown much, I have no idea why, and my halfblack angel looks nice but still small, I'm thinking of using this tank as a quarantine for new species.

I can get Seachem root tabs, do you know how good they are? How are they used and how many should I use and how often? I'm sorry about the questions but I have never used them and I see that they are highly recommended.

What other options besides seachem do you have?

Im personally not opposed to them, I've used them before and it isn't bad stuff.
