ok so i understand that cycling a tank means time and work i have been doing what i thought was a good job and have done water changes daily. i guess i might just have to step it up to more then once a day now. this comes because i have suffered my first casualtie. I lost a platie tonight. i came home and found him on the bottom of the tank. im pretty sad and dont wana loose my betta. im doign a water change now before i go to bed to hope help him last the night. DO i just get rid of these fish now? i want a cycled tank so i can have others with my betta but i dont wan sacrafice him in the process. what should i do. i only hope that he is still with me by the time someone can respond to my post. I almost feel like responsible or like im a bad fish keeper dont hate on me people.
