why all my fishis dye2007-11-24 23:43:45

i wouldnt have any kids if i were you.

you didn't pull the fish out of the water, even for a second, did you? The reason why I ask is, I used to do that to our fish when I was a little kid, and they all died.

u need to convert the bad chemicals in the tap water by using some product that u put in the filter, it helps change the bad chemicals to good chemicals something to do with carbon. then u can put ur fishys in the aquarium.

Just so you know, the singular and plural is fish and it's spelled die. I can't actually help w/ your question, I'm just a thoughtful bloke, who aims to educate people when I can.

Read around on some fish forums on how to properly set up, care for, and maintain fish in aquariums. Research the types of fish you want also before you buy them to make sure they won't outgrow your tank, or most likely die before they do outgrow it. First thing you need to do is cycle the tank. You also need to do regular weekly water changes. Not sure what kind of plecos you have, if they're the common ones, they're not compatible with a 20 gallon tank, and you really shouldn't have had 2 in there. The worms are probably planaria, which usually show up when you overfeed your fish. Try doing a 50% water change right now to try and save the remaining fish. Be sure to use dechlorinator in the new water to eliminate the chlorine or chloramine from the tap water. As I said, I strongly suggest doing a little research, these sites will help you. Just read through all the posts, especially cycling a fish tank.
