it may not be as bad as i originally thought after talking to a few others. the
'pineconed' barb passed away last night, as did one of the platies. i'm treating
the others in a 10 gallon QT tank now, and treating my other tanks as well as a
precaution. BTW, the wife said she knew i'd find a reason to get another tank.
;)
here's to hoping, thanks for the support flash.
