Our fishies part deux

Only one survivor from the original batch of fishies. We manage to cycle the tank. the high ammonia and nitrite was the likely cause of failure. We do away with the gravel, live plant and the wood piece. Put artificial plants and plastic shelter for them instead. the cramic was probably a better choice just less aesthetic value. We trusted Seachem PRIME to condition the water and API natural products MELAFIX to contain disease in the tank.
We bought 50ea OF Tetra - Balloon Red Eye fishes that school very close together it was a delight to watch. Not the most colourful but surely most entertaining. We got frens for the goldie suvivor. And yes the Tetras nip the fins of their bigger mates! They are doing well in that tank.. Alhamdulillah
Our hearts sink whenever we lost any fish and we are determined not to lose any this time! InShaaAllah
