Re: Wow! Lots of thoughts and (none / 0) (#3)

Thank you very much for your suggestions and links (that I will be checking into today). I ordered bio-spira and they ship second day with cold packs. So I should have it tomorrow or Wed. at the latest. My LPS looked at me like I was crazy when I mentioned it LOL and tried to sell me other products instead (but I didn't go for it) My pet store will buy any tank raised fancy guppies but not the rest of my live bearers. I have a few plants now and I am just going to let nature take it's course and try to save the fancies for trade of fish or goods at the pet store. I do have a couple fish that have been very aggressive since yesterday and my pet store said they cannot or will not which every you prefer LOL take back any of my fish unless they are beating up on others in the tank. So I will be calling this morning and asking them to take back the two that are aggressive and I will get a test kit today also. And it is amazing that the hardiest fishes are the ones I wish I would not have went with now LOL. OH well I won't put them down just because I don't care for them the most. It will all work out in the end I am sure. Maybe it will just be an excuse to get another tank for raising my fancies LOL (think my hubby might kill me hehehe). Any way thank you to both of you that responded to my post. Great site here and very helpful.

Have you taken the male betta out? It won't help a lot, but even a little bit less stress on the system won't hurt. Bettas can manage in a bowl or jar for a few weeks if necessary. Once the tank cycle is complete, you can consider putting him back in the tank or getting him his own little home. (Bigger than 1 gallon please.)
