OK, so no longer than a week to remove meds, then throw it away. :)

Sadly it was too late. Feel awful for not spotting the signs / treating earlier.

Have since performed another water change and added some melafix. Will continue the medication as per the instructions.

You tried to fix the problem, so don't feel too bad.

Floating plants have had their enclosure increased however I think the flow of the surface and the horrible light are not doing them any favours. A lot of the frog bit have gone brown / turned to mush.

In more exciting news I’ve ordered the fluval 406. Once exchanged it’ll be time for NEW FISH.

I’m thinking either some cherry barbs or a different school of tetra (I like the look of the cochu blue, super blue emperors, silver tip and lemon tetra).

I will also buy the fluval plant 3.0 once I get paid.

No Christmas for me! 😅

I've got the Fluval Plant 3.0, it's a great light. I've a feeling you are going through the same "pimp my Roma 240" experience as I did last year - 406, Plant 3.0... now you just need a CO2 kit and the transformation will be complete [woo]

Edit: you know there's a 407 now, right? Is that the one you're getting?

Heh. I was idly planning the pimping of my Roma 240 earlier.
I'm thinking replace the 305 with something that's got an integrated heater and add inline CO2.
The lighting upgrade can wait.

I know of the 407 but went with 406 as it’s cheaper but still a great filter (from all the reviews I’ve read).

I think I’m going to pass on the CO2 kit though. I’ve chosen low maintenance plants and they’ve all done well so far!

I also bought the Fluval plant 3 so just a small piece of advice, don't have it at full strength for several hours each day in my case the plants shot up but so did BBA .
