So new question…can my tetras live in a plain fish bowl for a couple days while I clean both of my tanks and get them set back up? The benefit is that UV light tends to cause some materials to fluoresce. 370nm is just barely within our range of visible light, and is quite far into the violet spectrum, producing UVA rays which can potentially be harmful. I am thinking that again…I am going to have to start fresh…cleaning everything thoroughly and reconditioning the tanks but the question is where do I put the 3 live fish till the tank is ready? I guess I will have to find some sort of container or keep an extra fish bowl handy for these situations. A black-light is essentially a fluorescent bulb that produces light in the 370nm range. So I can't say whether the black stuff is killing my fish or the fish from walmart has contaminated my tanks and killed 1 of my original fish. My kiddos also don't turn off the tank light often…could this also be the problem? The fish that died today is in a tank that I see a little of the black coming but no where near the amount that is in the tank that 2 of our original fish are alive still. We have 2 tanks exactly the same tanks, same filter, different decor (only because each of our sons picked what they wanted in the tank) but same type of fish. SIZE - 1. a little more expensive when compared to metal halide and fluorescent bulbs. Sagittaria subulata (Dwarf Sag) Planterest - 10 x Dwarf Sagittaria Subulata LIVE AQUARIUM PLANT - 10 x Dwarf Sagittaria. The 6 tiny fish that we bought from walmart all died within a week (hence why I will stick with the fish from now on from a good pet store). It plays a crucial role in allowing our aquatic plants to photosynthesize. Our 4 original fish have lived (till today…I lost one of them this morning but this isn't in the tank that has ALL the black stuff). Fish adapted to temperature inside bag before dumping them straight in. We did, when setting up the tank, clean (not with soap and water, just rinsing thoroughly) everything before putting the tank together and conditioned everything for 2 days prior to even putting fish in the tank, checking the levels before adding the fish just in case.
There is a filter that uses the biobags and we do check them often.
