Myst Posted October 10, 2003 Report Share Posted October 10, 2003 My husband fed the fish, and then i did and neither of us realised that the other had done it, and now we have 6 fish looking very very very stuffed... Is there anything we can do to stop them from dying?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris.L Posted October 10, 2003 Report Share Posted October 10, 2003 Are they swimming or just at the top of the tank the whole time? What fish are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Posted October 10, 2003 Report Share Posted October 10, 2003 I doubt they'd stuff themselves until it kills them, just give them some time to digest it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myst Posted October 10, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2003 on that note... how often would be suffient for feeding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't feed them for a few days and, all things being equal, they should be fine. A couple of extra water changes and maybe some salt in the water and everything should be both 'hunky' and 'dory'. > how often would be suffient for feeding? Small amounts of food at regular intervals are good. I'm mean and only feed most of my fish once a day. They'd be happier (and grow faster) with smaller amounts of food, more often. I use only live foods (for all but my community tank) as so have a bigger buffer since it doesn't go off so soon... Andrew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Posted October 10, 2003 Report Share Posted October 10, 2003 I'll b surprise if they keel over n die Myst.. u could try increasing aeration too as low O2 levels may result esp if u have a high stocking rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
