To all experienced fishkeepers.
I have a dead Pleco and i am deeply saddened and concerned. Why did he die?
I have 20 gal FW tank with 6 neon tetras and 2 blue danios. The Ammonia levels were near zero and the PH was 6.8. I have had the tank for about 4 mo and the Pleco for about 2 mo. The tank has cycled, and i perform 20 % water changes every other week. I have never had a Pleco die i thought that they were the heartiest fish around. Whats wrong???
