thanks sue like i said problems so much with this tank just so much bad luck
after i did my change on tuesday fish were more active and happier ( understandably ) changed things around etc
now today my ram looks weak and hes just basically on the bottom of the tank which is not like them/him i can just tell theres something wrong with him, i took pictures because as you said is he a male or female ( lol at he i have always just thought it was a he ( male ) ), so ye i took pictures of the ram yesterday because i was going to say what sex is he as i cant remember and i have already asked about this but cant find were i have asked in the forum, because i was thinking of getting another ram or more rams to put in the tank as you say they are picky and he is very picky hes been my first ram i bought, hes bullied one to death and another i had to get rid of had to take it to MA but i kept him because hes been there from day one, anyway i was gonna risk after sexing the ram and get a mate for the ram because he seems lonely even though you say hes ok on his own which is fine but i dont want the ram to be lonely but i wont bother asking much about the rams yet as my one now looks weak after looking fine the other day
this is him on tuesday after my water change( the first 3 pictures)
and this is him now the 2 bottom pictures
i just finished my water change today which is my 2nd of the week and now will wait till monday to do another 1 then another 1 in the same week then i will go back to doing 1 water change a week after next week,
now when i did my water change on tuesday as you know i use seachem prime and i usually put 0.3 measurement in a shringe but tuesday i did 0.5 in each bucket ( 3 buckets ) so i am wondering if that had an effect but the others seem fine its just the ram, todays water change i went back to 0.3 and will stay at 0.3 just every last bucket i put in i usually do 0.4
the pebbles were from a fish shop yes i put them in a bowl and filled up with boiled kettle water then put it in the sink and overflowed the bowl with cold water before putting them in the tank
i hate my tank so many problems hardly good moments
going back to the rams a second my mum went to MA today before she went she said what sex is the ram i said i dont want one i am talking to sue about it at the moment i asked her to get me a water test kit she said ok if its not too much as i havent had money for a few months i dont claim job seekers as i have been sanctioned and i havent had luck with a job yet so hopefully she can afford one for me if not then nothing i can do until i get money whenever that is
anyway thats all i can think about at the moment, thanks again everyone
