My 3 Tips for [Fish Death and Stress Immediately after a Water Change] ***What Can We Do?***

Published on Tue, Jul 21st 2020 Pets & Animals Rectangular HD

A recent comment under one of my videos asked about that horrible situation where a fish keeper notices, immediately after a water change, that the fish appear to be under severe stress or are rapidly heading toward death. It's a horrible feeling. What can we do? Here are some tips that might come in handy (but I hope you never have to use them since this is one of the worse situations fish keepers go through).

This one kind of stumped me. I had to give it some thought. What would you do if you noticed fish stress and death immediately after a water change? Comment below. We all learn from each other on this channel!
