Heater ran wild, fish are ok though

get wet pack krill and see if they float with small pinches of that. you might be
able to get the fish to come to your fingers and give them their pinch to stop the
piggies from pushing in to get it all. Ingrid

have you changed the food/ feeding amounts?

The food label reads pretty well, really not much in the way of carbs
and way down the list, so I kept it. I'm feeding really tiny amounts
and soaking it and squashing it first so it sinks. They seem to be
doing better, but are still floating after feeding. Just not for as
long. So I'll get the new heater, keep the temp higher and consistent,
do weekly instead of bi-weekly water changes. Does that sound better?
Oh, and probably take the gravel out too.
