Mr. F Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Your TDS is fine at 250ish. Probably up to 300. I have my carbon rilis in 240-260. The issue could be TDS vs KH and GH. What are your reading on those params? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. F Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Also, how did you do the water change? Make sure you're dripping the water back in slowly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrimps Posted May 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 No deaths in 2 weeks since lowering the TDS to 160-170. Did pick up 10 more yesterday, bringing the tank total to 15. One of my originals is starting to turn white in the middle where its clear. Is that signs of an infection?

Skrimps Posted May 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Did a 40% water change today (RO water; initial 10 ppm re-mineralized to 140 ppm) and vacuumed the gravel. Haven't fed them in the past couple days either trying to contain this bacterial bloom. Also bought and treated with "Maracyn Two". Hoping that it works, fingers crossed. Ammonia and nitrites at 0 and nitrates at around 5 ppm. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
