Havent kept a tank for eyars butdecided to get it going again
ran the filternad heater for two weeks , put in 10 neon tetras to get
it going , first two days they seemed happy "schooling away " as I
alwy remmebered they happily do
HOWEVER last two day they have obviosly had a fall out ! they all seem
to be ignoring each other and are swimming separately , sometimes they
seem to be happy floating , no movement , strnge ..i have no recollection of
this
behaviour before ?
I dont yet have a way of measuring tempreture , would a tank thats too cold
cause this ?
any advice appreciated

I'm late to the party - but in the past, Neon Tetras stopped schooling away
when they figured out that there were no threats to them.
Adding a pair of young Angelfish had them at it again... ;)
