I just spent over 250 dollars on a stand and gorgeous set-up for my 40 gallon fish tank. I hated the rocks I had and purchased the type of sand that balances the ph in the water. So I put all the fish (2 bala sharks, 2 tiger barbs, 1 ghost knife, 1 sucker fish, 1 yellow tail, and 1 eel in my 10 gallon while I set up. I waited an hour and the fish began fighting with each other so I called the fish guy asked if it would be alright if I put the fish although the water was still hazy. He tells me its ok, its normal, the water is just settling, the fish will be fine, mind you I asked him twice. So I put them in the 40 gallon and before I know it 12 hours later all are dead except the ghost knife and the sucker fish. In fact, I had to help two "pass away" because it was clearly obvouis they were suffering and I wasnt about to let them die like that ever though they are fish. What happened!??! I'm angry and sad, did he give me the wrong sand with a high ph? Or what?!
