Im Really Upset!!!

[FishGeek]

First off I am irritated cause some how I got ick!! I noticed it less than an hour after putting my Discus in my tank. He doesnt have it though. Thank God!! I quickly moved my Discus into my 7G. (He is only 3 in. and its only temp.) I have also moved the Plecos in there. But I was so upset and I was trying to get the onther tank started on treatment and get the dog her meds and take care of the cats accident that I forgot to put an airstone in the 7G tank!! Everyone is fine except my L260!!! He was my baby too! I am really mad at myself right now. I cant believe that I did that!!! I also lost all 5 of my Hatchets (2 last night and 3 this morning and 1 of my Rummynose Tetras!!! I thought that everything was going great!! GRRRRRRR!!!!! I went back to Petco and there was ick in the tank. I didnt see it when I first bought the fish but its there now so they must have had it!! This really sucks!!!!

That is petcos fault. My LFS puts tanks on "hold" if the tank has ick or any other diseases. I'm sorry for your loss.

 

[FishGeek]

I know but I blame myself too cause I should have been more observant. It just really sucks!!

Sorry to hear that Hatchets are one of those "ich magnet" fish, unfortunately. Because most fish stores have their tanks on one system, if you see it on one fish in the store, you can bring it home with you.

Good luck with the treatment.

if that tank has ich, i'd bring the fish back to petco and try to get your $ back.

im sry for ur pleco loss... you should take them back

I'm so sorry to hear that
I've been to Petco more than once and seen Ich, it's a real shame.

Best of luck with treatment, I hope your other fish are okay.

That sucks. Petco is bad about having diseased fish. I don't buy fish from there because they are way overstocked and quite a few are diseased. I have other options so I am lucky. Sorry to hear about all your fish.

 

[FishGeek]

Thanks guys. I havent lost anymore so far so, fingers crossed.

 

[prettypleco]

That really really sucks!! Poor babies. I hope the rest are okay.

[FishGeek]

Thanks again ya'll. I am worried about my Discuss being in the small 7G tank. But so far so good.
