Re: Tropheus Duboisi dying

Trish-
Sorry that another one died but maybe things will look better tomorrow.

I'm concerned that the fish seem to die after a water change. It makes me
wonder about the water chemistry (which would affect the duboisi more than
the other fish). I'll be interested to see if the Epsom Salts helps the
fishes' behavior, if you get around to trying that. I really think it might
help.

Save the Maracide for later. You can use it instead of Quick-Cure on
sensitive species or both together when desperate. The old formula (with
di-bromo hydroxy mercuroflourescein blah blah blah) was quite effective. I
have my doubts about the new formula that they started using last year.
