I guess my main concern is if the alcohol slurry has wiped out all of the previous biological filtering, and the "living" plankton my wife described. I don't leave work for a few hours still.... Hard to know what's happened to the biofiltration without an ammonia test, but the total percentage of alcohol in your tank should be vanishingly small. The "plankton" is probably strings of yeast or bacteria growing on the sugar. You could tell your wife to add a dose of an ammonia neutralizer like Prime, AmQuel or Stress Coat if you have any around. An airstone would also be a good idea if she can set one up, since the yeast and bacteria will be depeleting oxygen. Good luck with it. -- __ Elaine T __ __' http://eethomp.com/fish.html '__
