SamH Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Usually I rinse my hands in tap water before putting them in the tank. I doubt it's from smoke on your hands but that's one possibility. Which plants? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frameaj1 Posted November 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Forgot the name sorry, but they a quite tall with big leaves. I also have baby tears, and sag grass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Just so long as they're true aquatic plants. More often than not pet stores will sell bog plants which die quickly underwater. The best thing for your tank would be a large water change to remove anything that may have been in the tank when the neons died. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dachende Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 I wouldn't worry too much about being a smoker, I haven't noticed any ill effects from it and haven't really heard of anything bad coming of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was more to do with nicotene or other pollutants making their way into the tank through a bubbler - or residue on hands.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
