Hi Harry and everyone,
I am so happy to be here ..I am new but have worked with the science of behavior with many animal species including herps .
Can someone help us with what is going on my daughter's fish have all died in just a few days at her fountain in Malibu, CA. The "pond" became completely dark after all the rain and I told her to take out just 1/4 of the water and refill it with clean hose water. Unfortunately I think she said she actually took out and put back in 3/4 new water from the hose. They started to die the very next day so far it seems to have stopped and the rest are still OK ? When she originally filled it she used hose water and let it sit for 24 hours or longer. We don't know what to do the pool is 4x 8 and does have a pump of some sort ( I have to find out what kind it is) '
At the fish store where she got the fish the person who works there told her she should have left the water black even though the fish could never be seen ...as it was it's own ecosystem . I completely understand the concept of a natural ecosystem ....but I am not convinced this is a true one and not convinced this is what caused the die off?
I would love to know what and why this has happened to these poor beautiful fish :( . Did putting water from the hose in without airing it do this?
PS. The white belly and the large gold fish have died ..but so far the Japanese big fish and a few of the gold fish are still alive and so far seem OK
