emergency help needed
Did a stupid thing last night, I just got home from work and I turned on tap to add just a little bit of water into my tank.
problem is I went upstairs and forgot to come back down. wife discovered only in the morning my tank has been overflowing whole night. I lost a BD, but noticed my arowana seem to have been hit hard would appreciate advise from bros here. I dosed with Seachem safe. then added some more aeration. what else can I do? I also added a little bit of salt. my aropwana has turned pale and seem to be gasping for air, he does swim but I am worried . hoping he pulls through. any other think I can do? |

Don't think there's anything much you can do already.
I would have done the same. Netting them out and isolate them in smaller tanks might further stress them out. Hopefully everything turns out OK for you! |

oh my bro! i cant imagine how u felt, so glad to hear everything is ok.
is the chlorine levels in Philippines relatively lower than in SG? or were you perhaps adding the water at a slow rate. |
