    Always have H202[ hydrogen peroxide ] ready when using so you can deactivate quickly if necessary .
    H202 is used at 1 ml per g to deactivate and clears the water nicely .
    Any problem at all with your Bio filters?

    There is always a chance of an ammonia spike .
    One of my favorite articles has the bio being pulled for the treatment but I don't .

    Update on discus and tanks. So I set up the 75 and added some fish. 10 phantom tetras 5 died in 3 days. Not sure of the others. 4 sterbai Cory’s and 3ottos. They’re doing good no loses.8A6C395B-234F-4383-9CB7-96EE9490897F.jpg7C864E88-4279-4395-9E56-70AF0CBF9189.jpg1EC34201-0502-4663-B6E3-51D76AA0175F.jpg. The 7 in the 45 still seem to be growing with no problems. To that tank I added a pair of Julii Cory’s and a pair of SAE. Still changing 30g a night in this tank and feeding regularly.04600E54-580F-46F8-91B8-77D0FB8DC100.jpgB49A1E95-9D16-4618-9D38-6458B3CE2C80.jpg last is the 15 with the small wonder. He’s doing well by himself and eating everything I add. There is now an SAE a Julii a 4 cardnail tetras. I started with 8 and in 24hrs was down to 4. But what’s left look good and have colored up.
    Not to happy with the tetras. Lost 9 in 3-4days. All the other new fish are doing fine just the tetras. And all the fish were bought from different stores. Not many fish in any one store. FFE94239-C0FF-4902-B231-90492E432566.jpg

    Well strange day today. Was water changing and all the cardinals died. Did the big discus tank first 50g than did the 75 30g and whatever happened all the cards died. Nothing else so go figure. But put all the rest of the discus in tonight. Alls looking good and they were eating .82999B5D-EF08-428D-AD8C-2845348CA329.jpg9AC5958C-4898-4B41-A443-F24ED20E4D96.jpgA36BEE4F-D4ED-4BF9-A5E8-5748867D271B.jpg

    The secret to learning how to fly is this, you must throw yourself at the ground and miss.
