Water params are ph 6.4 gh 5 kh 0 everything else 0 Normal weekly to bi weekly water changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OblongShrimp Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Looks like it could be a bad molt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 +1 Unfortunately with a molt like that, she is probably a goner. Check your gh and see where that is at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtletanks91 Posted April 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 I re checked the gh its around 6-7 can you tell me the color changes for gh and kh again Shea already gone had planaria all over her his mornig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Depends on the brand you are using as to the color it turns. My API turns from orange to green with gh testing, Sounds like your gh is fine. Planaria tends to paralyze and then gang up. So chances are they either took the opportunity when your cherry was molting, or were on her after she was dead. Time to pull out the fenben.

wicca32 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 can i ask why you have neo's in suck low parameters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtletanks91 Posted April 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Cause I'm using Amazonia. And my neos are fine haha. I've tried keeping the snowballs and pfr sakura in higher ph etc they didn't do to well. For some reason there doing quite well and breeding readily in the crystal params.
