Thanks again for the help! I only lost 2 loach's but It looked horrible,
smelled bad too. The water change did help considerably though. I think I
might have to invest in some hardware soon. I am going to use different
containers for sure, try and cat proof them.

Thank you.
That makes sense. I only hope it is not a total loss before I get

home.


Once you get it under control (water changes) there should be no lasting
damage (been there done that). You might want to switch to a wider CO2
bottle. I found the large plastic jugs (think they are about 3-4) you

can
get juices in (cranberry, ocean spray etc.) are great and much less
tippable.

P.

That's what I did and haven't had anything get tipped over since. Look at
the bright aside of it ..... you don't sound like you were using Jell-O.
Now that really makes a mess :-(
