I lost another fish today.
And there is still another doing the fin on one side thing, trying to stay upright.
I found a stack of flowers in the bottom of my to pup water tub, so I guess it could be something to do with that as well, but my bet is currently on either the rotting bean and cok choy plant, or that I accidentally overfed them.
I cant be sure if this is still the aftermath of the damage that was done when I had the nitrite and ammonia spike, or if this is some ongoing problem.
I see ants in the water every day, and sitting on the rim of the fish tank, is a collection of ant parts that the ants have presumably thrown out their window.
If there is a pile of ant parts on the rim, I'm guessing quite a number fall into the tank as well.
I have no idea if ants and ant parts are bad for an aquaponics system, but I suspect they don't do any great good.
Losing fish Is no fun.
Waiting is even less fun.
