Good morning house,
i hatched some fishes last week Tuesday, and the thing was very successful but on the 3rd day they started dieing. Den i moved some into some bowls nd those one were stable while the once in the tank were still dieing. thinking maybe there is bacteria in the tank, i moved everything into bowls and wash the tank with formaline and detergent, place it under the sun for hours den rinse it very well.
I moved them back and treated the with Bicabonate nd tetracycline, nd they ve been doing fine.
Today the sixth day after the treatment they ve started dieing again.
Now I've moved them into bowls again. Pls farmers what can i do? I've not given them anything nor wash the tank.
N.B--(its a white plastic tank.)

Hahahahahah. Sorry o op.

Let me write a letter to them for you.

"Dear fishes I am writing this letter on behalf of my friend "dear op" that you people should stop dying because he loves you all very much and by doing you are shattering his heart and feelings, please stop dying - signed- management-"

Maybe you are not feeding them properly
Recession is hitting them hard

Did you check the pH of the water? Have you siphoned unhatched eggs afterwards? Are you running constant flow through? What did you feed them with and as at when?

Possible the water tank is releasing some chemical when exposed to the sun. Change your entire tank and see if they survive.

Exactly. Did you do a water analysis before breeding? The fingerings are very sensitive to water electrolyte content and pH. Oxygenation and overcrowding might be another issue

So you washed the thank with formalin and detergent? Next time don't do that, use wood ash or water only

Now to your problem; it may be as a result of:

Low oxygen,
Overpopulation,
Contaminated water I.e chlorinated water
Bad feed

Check this and you'll see changes

The water is not treated @all, also they started dying even before i started feeding them.
Den the whole thing is indoor i.e. In a dark room.
