Title: seaking of angels
Post by: vaudeville on February 27, 2013, 11:44:11 AM

Hey Gang
Had a weird thing happen lst night that I am trying to wrap my head around

I had a 40 long set up with some young angels (koi, blues, plats and silvers) and they were doing well
I needed to split up the larger severms and angels so I decided to split the angels between 2 29s till I could sneak in another larger tank
both 293 were preped the same way
I made the split of the koi in one tank and the rest in another
The next morning at non-koi were going great but I lost every one of the koi
Same temp, water everything
Don't understand it

Wow... something was in that tank.  Or something was in the filter or gravel.

This is keeping me guessing as both had clean new gravel that I washed and new filter inserts

New tank syndrome?  Did you do any testing?  Were both the tanks new?

Nope had the two tanks running the day before
Cleaned both tanks the same and all my tanks are on the same well water
I also did a fifty percent plus water change on all iuhe tanks
It was had a Jamestown situation

I have had a lot of deaths of young Koi angel fish recently.  I think they just to sensitive to change.
