Hey
Flippercon Mr decided to drill some slightly larger holes in the plastic fish tank divider that we had in the tank. It'd been sitting out of the tank for a few days drying..and had turned green from algae. Anyways...he drilled the holes and put it back in the tank and all was good for about 15mins then suddenly dark purple started coming off of the divider and one whole side of the tank had deep purple water. I instantly grabbed Toby out of that side and threw him into the breeder net. Unfortunately that side of the tank is where the filter takes in water. We removed the divider and put in a piece of plexiglass to hold off the purple spreading as fast and quickly did a 50% water change.
Any ideas what caused this reaction?
So far Severus and Callie seem unaffected. Toby on the other and doesn't seem the happiest and is teetering side to side occasionally...
